I got a letter yesterday. Given the dates we’re in, I’d rather have a ham in syrup or a large peach boat. But it wasn’t Christmas, nor was it an early Christmas greeting. It was a letter. A letter, a letter. With small white envelope and legal tender seal, postmark and well-folded foil inside. The handwriting is short but not concise. In blue ink. I want to say the calligraphy was beautiful but it was average. It would also be very nice to say “written with a steady hand”. But I don’t know what pulse the gentleman gave to this calligraphy, monday calligraphy, dear sir, the reason for the gift and so on.
There are those who open and write the letter when they receive it, and there are those who receive it and start writing. The sender was commenting on a message he had read in the newspaper, and of course, these days when emails are more visible than people’s chins, I couldn’t help but think that someone was in trouble. get up from the sofa, put down the newspaper, go to the table, get a paper, take a pen, write, fold the paper, put it in an envelope (or go and buy it), get dressed, at least comb your hair, go down the street and find that another mailbox.
I am amazed that the letter even reaches me, now only packages, impropriety, books, intentions, invitations to impossible actions, brochures or bank bills are received, which is not enough to get a commission: it has to be announced by letter.
What do you do when you (rarely) receive a personal letter and read it? Of course I’m sorry why the sender didn’t attach an email. If I don’t answer, the man will be offended. I only have his address, so I’ll have to set this aside, grab a piece of paper, a pen, or open a document on the computer, write, print, look for an envelope, go out and try to look for a mailbox. . This was the world before.
I didn’t want to give you my email, so don’t take it as rude. Or maybe you just don’t use technology. I can’t wait to get your answer. I picture him looking for a mailbox in his city. It may be waiting for a letter to arrive at the border due to illusion. It’s possible. I go down to the portal to see if anything comes up.
