Dear you,

Tell me, when was the last time you wrote a letter?

It saddens me that the art of letter writing feels all but extinct in this modern age, when, for so many years, it was our primary source of correspondence.

I’ll admit, I’ve written very few letters in my life. I do remember starting up some correspondence with a childhood friend, after my family and I moved away. I don’t recall the content of these letters but do remember the doodles and star stickers that I used to decorate them with. Sadly, I can’t include any such stickers in this digital letter, so I will have to resort to emojis, that don’t quite hit right 🌟.
