A Letter From a Friend

     i was cleaning out my desk drawers today, and i found an old letter from a very dear friend, and it made me think that in a day of emails, folders, and glowing screens, we should write more letters. if this had been an email, i would have lost it a long time ago, but today, i have it in my hands...

"Dear Hannah - 

I was just re-reading the "True Friends" book you gave me and had the sudden urge to tell you what a great friend you are! I hope we're still true friends when we're grown and married. 

Friendship:

You make me laugh when I'm feeling sad, 

You make me seem good 

when I feel all bad. 

No matter what happens

through thick and through thin, 

I'll always treasure

the great friend you've been.

Love, 

Mirriam"

     i'm so glad i have this, and i can fold it up, place it back in the envelope, and when i need a kind word from a caring person, i can pull it out and re-read it once more. 

    let's write more letters. they really are worth it.
