There’s nothing quite like a handmade gift, or a hand written note or card. The ‘letter’ used to represent a piece of the person sending the greeting. In today’s computerised culture, and arguably ‘what’s in it for me?’ society, this video is an amazing story of a teacher who tracks down students and returns the letters he got them to write – to themselves – 20 years beforehand.
Did they live out their dreams?
What an enlightened idea and teacher!
Could you write a letter to yourself to read in 1 or 5 years time? Or send a handwritten letter to someone special?

A gentle reminder to respond not over react...it’s not only the wisest thing to do, it’s also pretty kind. And you… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…1 week ago
