# Happy Mail # Postcrossing

Postcrossing Love

" To send a letter is a good way to go somewhere without moving anything but your heart."

Ive always been fond of writing letters , infact i believe that there's absolutely nothing that substitutes the power of written word.. and while we do have the internet and the phone and all sorts of ways to stay in touch now-a-days yet a handwritten letter has the thought , the feeling, the effort and the love and therefore my vote always favors the handwritten letter .. and there was a time when i used to send lots of mail , i used to send cards , write letters to friends and love letters to my then bf ( now hubs :D) , but as I grew older , the frequency grew lesser and lesser and i had almost forgotten the joy of sending and receiving mail . up until now, when i joined Postcrossing ..

Postcrossing is a project which gives one an opportunity to connect with like minded people all over the world by sending and receiving postcards ..the main idea is that for every postcard you send , you receive a postcard back from any part of the world and isnt that amazing ?

Well , trust me it is, cause today i received my very first postcard all the way from Spain and i am absolutely elated ,so much so that even though its pretty late in the night ,i just couldnt go to sleep without bringing myself to first write about it and share my joy..
here's a picture of the postcard too.. isn't it beautiful..??
I think i am surely going to dream of Puerto De La Cruz tonight ..
here's sweet dreams and a good nite to you too :)
