A few days ago, a family friend popped into my head. I hadn't been thinking of any particular memory, or any circumstance...it was just boom! I thought of her. Well, in that instant I thought "Hey, I should send her a thinking of you card." And she's not on facebook - even if she was - I should still send a note. Maybe it would make her day. And that's when I realized that part of the reason snail mail is so unpopular is because it quickly entered my head that I didn't have time to sit and write a card. But then I proceeded to think about her 4-5 more times...and realized in the time it took for me to remind myself that I didn't have time..I needed to just do it. And low and behold I did it the next day - TODAY. I got back from lunch a few minutes early, and wrote it at my desk. Lucky for me, I keep a sheet of stamps in with my box of stationary. This is a good habit to keep (especially now that they sell those forever stamps!) So I dropped it in the mail and we'll see. I came up with a cute little poem since I didn't exactly know what to say. Perhaps if you have a nice card or something, you may send someone special a note to brighten their day. Just sit down and do it! Getting mail these days that is something happy - and not junk or advertisements - is always a nice surprise.
A small little note
because I thought of you today,
and so I said a short prayer
hoping everything's okay.
I send you this card
that I'm thinking of you,
and hope your day is a little more cheerier too!
