{thursday turntable} word to the letter

Ever hear Neil Young’s  “One of These Days”  and get the urge to sit down and write a long letter to all the good friends you’ve  known? Virtual ties might keep us connected, but there’s something hearty and meaningful about taking the time to send people you care about something they can hold.

 

Instead of waiting for “one of these days”  when I’ll have time to write one long letter — let alone pen one to all the good friends  I’ve known —  I’ve become a fan of sending short notes or postcards.

 

Think about someone you’d like to reach out to, and then write them a note. Right now. You don’t have to say much, but with this one simple gesture,  you’ll say whole lot.
