Yes. And small synchonicity-- i recently finished and mailed out a "zine" for my founding subscribers where i used the Gandhi quote--"There is more to life than increasing its speed." as my main theme. Great minds!

"Fill a card for your friend with sweet memories, buy a pretty stamp, send it knowing we all love real mail. There is magic in putting pen on paper, to be held against one’s heart. A gift of something to savor and keep."

I recently sent a handwritten letter to an old friend, and the process itself felt like a small act of rebellion against the fleeting nature of texts and emails. The deliberate choice of paper, the careful formation of each word, the anticipation of its journey – it all adds up to something truly special. It's a physical manifestation of care, a tangible piece of your heart traveling across miles, and it speaks volumes in a way a quick message never could. It made me reflect on how much we lose when we trade the enduring for the immediate. 🩵

Spot on Alexander. It does add up! And it makes me feel so loved when I receive a hand written note. 💞

It doesn’t surprise me at all that you still send handwritten notes. 😘
