Nothing Wrong with Snail Mail & Other Musings from Chelsea

These days news travels at the speed of sound, just about. Sometimes it almost seems there is in fact, too much information going around! It is an overload to the senses oftentimes. Obviously, global news travels online via social media & news outlets seconds to minutes following the newsworthy event. The same can be true in our personal lives if we aren't careful. Information is constantly spewing!

When I was a kid, I loved snail mail. My Dad was military and we moved a lot. About the time I had made friends, well, it was time to move again. So, I ended up with a lot of pen pals. Over time those relationships stopped being reciprocated due to any number of reasons to include, hitting puberty. Only one of those people do I loosely stay in contact with to this day & that is via Lamebook. Speaking of which, omg, trying to get people to join Steemit is like pulling teeth. I believe there's a place for most people on steemit- you've got your born writers, your avid readers, your artists, etc etc etc!

Anyway, I digress, as I frequently do. I still believe in the power of snail mail. People who are close to me will receive it at holidays, birthdays, "thinking of you" moments, "condolence moments", and at random Chelsea chosen moments. This year as part of my snail mail tradition, I got lucky and found these amazing Dr Seuss cards.


I had to buy more stamps & as you saw in my header photo, those are cute too! The greetings in these cards are simple, but perfect. Each of the four cards has something a little different.




And here's the information on the artists/ makers of these cards...

I also learned today that FedEx does not sell stamps and that's just plain strange to me. 😲
So, what do you think? Snail mail is special, right? Please chime in, I always love hearing from my readers.

To wrap things up, just remember that whoever takes time out of their day to personally hand write in a card for you, obviously cares enough to do that, & that in and of itself is meaningful. I know a little snail mail always cheers me up. This is the Christmas card I got last year from our famous, wonderful, & awesome Steemian @lauralemons, who is sadly deceased. Miss you girl, RIP! She knew me well sending me a caticorn card. 💓💓 And, this is probably my most meaningful & priceless card ever now. ♡♡
