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

@Appleblossom

over here is the letter writing group.

Currently there are three of us writing under the pseudonym of Winnie the Pooh Bear and Friends.

Am happy to write to you about anything that you choose and we can write separately if you prefer or you can become one of the merry band of Winnie the Pooh and friends.

Or we can be whoever we choose to be.

You mentioned history, which I love reading and learning about.

Look forward to hearing from you should you like to write a letter or respond in any other way.

your friend Sophia 💚

Dear Friend,

Yes I know that you were initially writing about a real life situation but I am, in real life, one of those interrupters. I find that if I don't interrupt I don't get to say what I am thinking and then the opportunity passes. I am so sorry that your friend doesn't give you an opportunity to share your news. That must be very frustrating.

Curry for dinner sounds very warming.
I didn't have a profile picture yet as I am quite new here but as I decided to play Eeyore I thought that was perfect so I went and found some clipart. It's not a normal gloomy Eeyore but a cute smiling one as you and our band of letter writers makes me very happy.
I am not sure but I thought I saw @Shaz51 playing with Christopher Robin the other day. Maybe she will write us a letter?

All my love,

Eeyore

Hello @Oaktree @Emelia8 @NatureLover @Lilaca everyone...👋

Re: Writing and receiving letters via virtual post

Oh thank you @Oaktree (alias Eeyore) for explaining the situation.

All makes perfect sense now.

Has only taken us half a dozen letters laugh.

Still we will receive more letters more often if we keep this up.

As you are new, I am so pleased that you found us. You have welcomed us and we in turn have welcomed you.

I am loving it.

I love spontaneity, bringing the child in me to the fore and writing letters. Usually I am renowned for my essays.

As you can tell from my icon, I am a mixture.

I will check the post tomorrow just in case

You might like to invite @Shaz51 by writing her a letter. We do need a Christopher Robin.

Dear Friend,

@Anastasia

How wonderful to see you here. Looking forward very much to your addition to our little letter writing band. I too am enjoying allowing my inner child out to play.

All my love,

Eeyore

Re: Writing and receiving letters via virtual post

OOh wonderful I did spot you not behind the trees where Emelia is, behind a large sculpture.

@Anastasia I will let you decide what the sculpture is.

Would you like to choose your character now as our merry band of friends is growing.

I am going to try my non techno whizz skills at posting an image of Tigger.

Re: Writing and receiving letters via virtual post

I am sorry that you lost your pets. I don't have pets because I am too sick to do so. However, my garden has more grass than any garden in the surrounding area. All of the area's kangaroos will have chilled out in my garden at some stage. Some have even tried opening my back door to invite themselves in! They are a total pain but when one baby roo died on my front lawn I did feel sad. Since I have no choice but to live with the wildlife, I almost think of them as part of the family.

Dear Friend,

Thank you for your kind words. How nice to see you here. I would love it if you would join us in letter writing if you feel comfortable otherwise you can just keep reading along. How wonderful to have kangaroo friends in your garden. When we first moved into this house 26 years ago there was bush behind us and the kangaroos used to bound right up to the boundary line. Now there are all houses behind us. I miss the kangaroos.

All my love,

Eeyore
