Comments on: Secret Love Letters Hidden In A Suitcase http://www.perkersonpark.com/2009/09/secret-love-letters-hidden-in-a-suitcase.html Continuing conversations in the park begun in the autumn of 1969 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 16:22:11 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Tracey http://www.perkersonpark.com/2009/09/secret-love-letters-hidden-in-a-suitcase.html/comment-page-1#comment-968 Tracey Wed, 09 Sep 2009 19:00:57 +0000 http://www.perkersonpark.com/?p=2568#comment-968 I have often thought there is an art to letter writing. I mean the real kind, not emails or texts or posts or twitters but a real bonafide sheet of paper or card that someone has written their most private thoughts for your eyes alone. My dear Mom has always understood this art and to this day, I receive a lovely handwritten card once a week from her and since I've been an adult, I share the same with her. It has become our little "thing" that we do being 600 miles apart. I treasure each card or letter and keep them all in a shoebox. Each time I read one I am reminded of how I am still her little girl and she's my Mom and the world can be made right regardless of the chaos that may swirl around me. Thank you for reminding me once again how special they are. I have often thought there is an art to letter writing.

I am not only entertained by your posts, but also enlightened - not only about you two, but also about me and mine. Thank you.
