Favorite Things ~2

Postcards.

I have been collecting them for about 10 years. It’s not just that they have a nostalgic feel…that would be obvious…but I think there is something so beautiful and thoughtful about a handwritten love note or Christmas wish. An act that seems to have been long forgotten. Each card has texture and weight….like the words written on them give them substance and being. Each time I walk by my collection, it’s a little reminder to slow down, to not take the little things for granted…..and maybe instead of texting the kids or my sweetheart, actually take a moment to write my sentiments. So, the next time you are cruising through your favorite antique store and you come across a girl sitting on the floor perusing through the post cards, it just might be me =)
