 We have many avenues to communicate now, but are no better at communication.

Reminds me of this quote by #AndyRooney on #60Minutes years ago…

"We have advanced to the point where the means we use to communicate are more elegant and important than what we have to say."

 @3967703f ppl are really feeling this one. and i get it, i suck at using my words during conversations & especially on phone calls.

BUT i gotta say if y'all want more letters in the mail, write them! i send ppl letters, art & packages a few times a year, & sometimes get em in return. we always send postcards on vacation & sometimes, i drop one in the box randomly to say hi to a friend.

i also love stamps. just got a new set for nerds like me the other day..
