When was the last time you received an actual letter or a post card (not bills, okay?) from the mail? As for me, it has been ages! I don’t actually remember who was the last person who sent me one!
While growing up, I remember writing letters to friends even overseas. I would feel so excited waiting for the mailman to come to our house handing me these letters. I can’t explain the joy but long before computers and cell phones were a hit, I was enjoying writing, going to the post office, then waiting for this person’s response. Then you gotta write them back! What a vicious cycle!
The truth is, I just miss getting letters of this kind. One which is more personalized because this person actually took time to write a letter and going to the post office.
So when B* told me about the series of travelling plans starting last April, a deal was made: Must send me a post card for each city.
So after noting my address, I prayed B will remember the post card project.
B’s first destination was Dubai but after spending about 6 days there, B didn’t have time to write me one post card (grrrrrr!). Then after few days, B flew to Zagreb in Croatia which is by the way in Europe . Then one day, I got this from the mail.
