It is always somewhat exciting to get a letter in the mail. I’m not talking about a bill or junk mail but an actual longhand letter written by a human being. I received a letter last year before Thanksgiving, and I resisted opening it. It wasn’t because it was bad news, more the opposite in fact.
Who sent it? What am I afraid of?

Explore sending a love letter, a pick-me-up, a pep-talk, note to yourself. Ideally, wait long enough to open it so that you won’t recall what you wrote, then allow yourself to feel surprised, touched, proud, grateful…whatever shows up for you.
