Why Write Love Letters ?
I used to spend a lot of time trying to explain to my exboyfriend
why letters were so much more valuable than a phone call or an email.
I am not sure if he ever really understood. You can hold a letter
in your hand. You can’t do that with an email or a phone call. Ok,
so you can print an email, but it’s difficult to treasure that stark
white paper with its perfect type. A letter holds an imprint of the
person who wrote it. It shows they took that five minutes to sit down
with pen and paper. We’re more likely to reveal more of ourselves
in a letter than we would otherwise.
During one “episode” when
I was trying to explain my overwhelming preference for letters, I
almost got my point across. I asked him if he still had the letters
I had written him, he said yes, then I asked him how many of my emails
he still had, the answer: none. Aha! There is the difference!
I still have letters that
my high school sweet heart wrote to me. It’s always refreshing to
read them, you get a sense of who you were and how you’ve changed.
Love letters aren’t the only ones worth keeping, I keep letters from
friends too. Those are always good for a smile and are in some ways
greater treasures.
Letters seem to freeze
a moment in time, one that you can re-experience any time you wish.
The moments they freeze are usually ones that we want to relive as
many times as we wish in any manner we choose. Maybe I’m just a sentimental
sap. I keep other stuff too, I have ticket stubs from hockey games
and movies and each item holds a memory. These are the types of things
I’d take with me if my apartment building were on fire, because these
are the things that matter.
