from Mysterious letters

As you probably know by now: i am deeply in love with the concept of snail mail.  Recently I came upon this amazing site.  Its a concept by two artists: Lenka and Michael and their aim is to write a letter to everybody in the world.  I really love their originality- each letter is unique.  One can purchase a letter/s from them.  Wish i thought about that- earning money by writing letters!

I also really like this one!

Today I also stumbled upon this entry.  It is about ‘hate mail’.  Im not really fond of the concept of hate mail, but I love the idea of original drawings on postcards being distributed via the postal services.

I want to grab a pen and go write some letters.

I received the following quote from a dear friend today which made me think about e-mails, facebook and relationships overall:

“We believe we are in touch with a greater amount of people… This is the illusion which might cheat us of being in touch deeply with the one breathing next to us.” Anais Nin

So maybe I will first go play outside with my kids and when they sleep tonight I will write those letters.

When was the last time you received a hand written letter?
