there and back again

Call me old-fashioned, but there's something about writing letters that makes my heart feel wistful and happy all at once. It might be something to do with the fact that I'm not very good at vocalizing my feelings, thoughts, day-to-day emotions ect., to others, but hey, I'm working on it. Instead, I like to write letters. I like the fit of a fluid pen in my hand hand, flying across the paper. I like flipping through the pages that curl upon themselves when I'm done writing on them - front and back and margins all filled. I like stamps. I like envelopes. I like writing silly titles across the front. Above all, I like knowing that there's a little piece of me traveling -- across the country, or the state, or the city -- and surprising someone I love. It's an enchanting small interruption to the normalcy of everyday. That's all.
