The Unsent Letter

Writing is therapeutic.  If you are feeling angry or upset with someone but can't talk to them about it, an 'unsent letter can help.  It is also called a no-send letter or a Lincoln letter. Why a Lincoln letter, you may ask? Well, it's because It's because when Abraham Lincoln was angry with a colleague, he would write a letter to them venting his rage but, instead of sending it to them, he would put it aside and look at it a day or two later when his mind had cleared.  Picture from  https://drsamanthaboardman.substack.com/p/the-benefit-of-keeping-your-feelings That's what an unsent letter is. You write down what happened, how it has affected you and everything you would want to say to the person, but don't send it. After it is written, you can either store it somewhere safe if you want to look at it later or you can throw it away. You can choose what you want to do with it. There is no right or wrong way to write it.Just express yourself and let out your frustr...

Christmas Cards

The tradition of sending Christmas started back in 1843 in England, when a nobleman was too busy to send notes to his family and friends to wish them Merry Christmas so he hired a local artist to paint some ready-made cards to send out to them.  Now almost everything has gone digital and everyone sends texts,emails and uses social media to send wishes. In this post, I am sharing a few reasons why it's nice to send Christmas cards.  Picture found online Personal Greeting  Sending out a Christmas card is a more personal way of greeting everyone you care for and it implies a deep love that can't be expressed online.With texts and social media posts, you can wish happy holiday to many people at once, but they are impersonal and some people love to receive a card in the mail. They appreciate that you took the time to sit down and actually write a message to them.  Update a family photo Some people design their own card with a family photo on the  front. Families are ...
