I’m an Asshole
But you knew that.
Yesterday I pontificated about the lost art of letter writing. But I didn’t think about what I was saying.
Too bad nobody writes letters any more, I said. I pictured days long gone, I pictured Civil War soldiers writing letters and hoping to get some from their loved ones.
Thank you Rose.
Thank you for pulling my head out of the sand and pointing out that there are still soldiers sitting out there hoping for mail.
I am going to write a letter to a soldier. You should too.
Tell them you are proud of them. Tell you care that they are out there and you are thinking of them. Tell them what you’ve been up to. Tell them anything.
You can go to AnySoldier.com to get the address of a soldier who will give your letter to some soldier who has not received any mail. Go ahead and make some ones day.
Once again, thank you Rose for reminding me that these thoughts I have are best backed up by action.
If you’ll excuse me. I have a letter to write.
