Tied Up in Ribbons (A Dying Art)
Taken for Daily Shoot: January 29:
Make a photograph that illustrates an aspect of communication. #ds440
Letter writing, you know, the actual act of putting a pen to paper, writing thoughts and feelings, and putting a stamp on an envelope and mailing it to someone, is fading away. The only things we get in the mail, it seems, anymore, are bills and flyers. Even flyers are becoming less and less as more shops go online and try to be "green". Years ago, I had a few pen pals and I remember well the excitement of getting another letter and answering them back. Back and forth, the time it took to write and get a reply was often a couple of weeks or more, but sitting down with an actual letter, written on paper and reading it with a cup of tea in the afternoon was nothing short of blissful!
