I thought of such as this when I was mailing off payments of some recent bills. Everything is made now to pay on-line and this leaves our U.S. Postal service in quite a dilema. I read where at least 35,000 jobs will be downsized because people are using tech instead of text to write, communicate and send even the birthday cards I adore sending and receiving by the postal service. In case you haven't seen any news a consolidation of the government postal offices services will; or already have closed. Vital community service centers all across the country are expected to merge with other communities in a regional divisions in order to comply with downsizing in order to keep the postal service operational. So is there anything which citizens can do? Well we are already paying for higher costs of postage stamps, and that's not quite enough. Personally, I feel there is a need to revive the old handwritten letter and opt-out of the conviencences of using on-line operations for communication only by your e-mail letter, or paying your bills by returning to mailing them.
Try sending out e-mails only when it's necessary and dote on a handwritten letter for the change. There is a special connection there as well since the postal office does not receive taxpayer's funding many of the mail services may be obsolete and you'll be aiding in keeping mail out alive. I'd hate to see a time to come where I couldn't mail my friend a letter anymore. I'm just too sentimental. It's one of a real life situations for to bare the thought of the end of an era and of the letters... Ode' to the written letter.....
Dear Friend:
Please, if you would next time you write me, send in through the post office....I'd like to hold what you've written in my hands.
Love,
