Writing and receiving letters via virtual post

Writing and receiving letters via virtual post

I love receiving letters, cards and postcodes.

Often received; if written by someone on holiday; days after that person has returned home.

Use this space however you like as though you are writing a letter to someone with whom you relate to in real life.

You might want to say something to that person, or persons and not be given the opportunity.

Families can be so very judgemental and cause much hurt and pain.

This is a way of writing to tell someone how you truly feel; good or bad.

Just read along if this is not your style.

Carry on with your own preference of using the forums.

This is just an idea.

Sometimes we do not know that we might enjoy something different unless we try.

Writing letters can be very therapeutic and a special way of releasing pent up feelings without the person knowing.

Lastly, in writing a letter, you need not put their name or title.

You might like to address the letter as dear friend, or dear family member; dear doctor; dear psychiatrist; dear pet.

Think outside of the square and write about what you would really like to say.

Good luck

Sophia

Dear Friend,

Thank you for assuring me that I need not feel awkward.

All my love,

Dear Friend,

I am glad I made you laugh.

Eeyore always seems gloomy,

but not when surrounded by friendship.

We will always be a good cheer to good ol' Eeyore.

I am always feeling my tummy,

sensing if it's the right time for my next meal.

Alas, meal time isn't ready,

I can only rub on my grumbling tummy.

@Sophia1 may have been busy.

We need not ever worry.

She'll appear when she's ready.

Our troop will always be three.

Your Pooh Bear,

Always.

So stay happy.

Dear Friend,

I am feeling the need to apologise again. I hope I am not overwhelming you with the sheer volume of letters that you are receiving. I am enjoying the connection. This is indeed a fun idea. What's for dinner tonight? I had takeaway chicken and chips.
Thank you @Sophia1 for this fun virtual mailbox.

All my love,

Eeyore

Dear Friend,

Tuck in to your chicken and chips.

It sure sounds yummy indeed.

Well, I had my potato curries,

next to sweet smelling basmati.

With a glass of honey drink,

and a dash of lemon and mint.

I am always open to an invite

for a meal or a glass of honey drink.

We shall chat in front of the firewood

of our good old memories.

Well have a good night for now,

to my friends,

to the moon and the stars.

It may feel dark for now, but

may a bright day await you tomorrow.

Your Pooh Bear,

Always.

Hello @Lilaca @Oaktree @NatureLover

How lovely to be back and find so many letters in the post.

I never in my wildest dreams thought that I would get to write to Winnie the Pooh Bear and Eeyore.

I choose to be Tigger.

I promise not to be too clumsy or over (bear) ing.

It is a pleasure to have two new friends Winnie and Eeyore.

@Oaktree I could not work out why I could not type @eeyore then realised your pseudonym is @Oaktree

@Oaktree that was a lovely reply to my Dear Friend letter.

It makes sense about jumping into the conversation quickly: anxiety taking over.

Sophia knows all about anxiety.

ps I have a special edition statue of Winnie the Pooh with a pot of honey that my son bought me. He knows that I love all bears and collect them.

In fact I have many animals and birds about the place.

I shall write to you both separately.
