Today I want you to write a letter. There are many types of letters and I will leave it up to you to decide which type you would like to write. It could be a letter to a friend or family member, a protest letter, a letter to a soldier, a letter to the editor or perhaps a letter to a government official. The choice is yours.
A letter is a powerful thing for a few reasons; 1. you have to
take time to write a letter, so it shows you have made a commitment to the purpose of the letter; 2. letters allow you to think and
articulate yourself clearly; and, 3. letters usually merit a
response (and who doesn't like getting a nice letter in the mail).
On this beautiful day, I want you to choose a person or cause that has meaning to you, write them a letter, buy the postage necessary and send it through the traditional mailing system. It will take more time than an e-mail, but it will also show your sender you are willing to take the time for them.
