Letters

I have re-read the letters Bill wrote me while he was stationed aboard ship in the Navy in 1958. They are pretty much the same as the ones Dad sent Mother in 1945 during World War II. I suppose a service person’s life can be full of monotony even in wartime.

Receiving messages from home or from loved ones far away is by far the most wonderful, the most exciting, and the most fulfilling thing that can happen for most people in a day or a week. Nowadays it is easier and takes less time than it ever has. I love paper letters, but even more, I love modern technology that makes communicating so quick and easy. Besides being where you can hold hands, what’s your favorite style of communication these days?
