Great quote, Barb. The evolution of writing over the years is just amazing, from the messengers carrying scrolls to letters to e-mails to blogs, we still write.
I love this. Love the photos and the quote. It seems that email has replace airmail in many cases, but I still love to get a postcard from a friend overseas!
Annie, I agree that there is nothing quite as nice as receiving a handwritten letter or postcard. The idea of a stamped envelope from a faraway place is so much fun. Long ago I even sometimes go so far as sealing it with wax and dabbing some of my favorite perfume on it.
I agree, there is nothing like a handwritten letter or postcard. When I was a kid in the 50's, one of my aunts flew international as a TWA stewardess...she sent me postcards from all over Europe...the one I remember best was a Spanish lady dancer wearing real emobroidered skirt! Thanks for rekindling this great memory, Barbara!
I believe in love and kindness, family first, deep meaningful friendships, counting one's blessings and giving to others what you yourself need. I strive to see life as a glass half full. I am very grateful for the life I have and all the wonderful people that make this grand adventure so worthwhile.

Wonderful quote, and so true. I love reliving life through writing.

Candi, so true! From chipped out messages in stone to email...what next?
