While I don't need a specific day for encouragement to correspond the good old-fashioned way, I appreciate the heartfelt premise of The Sunday Letter Project.Created by Rebecca and Karl Maguire, founders of Wildflower Illustration Co. in Cheltenham, England, The Sunday Letter Project is a weekly invitation to recalibrate, reconnect, and return home through the practice of letter writing. The concept is refreshingly simple: sign a free pledge on their website and commit to writing one letter every Sunday.
As Rebecca and Karl explain, "Letter writing is the perfect antidote to our generation's dependence on technology, allowing us to slip back into a time when the world felt less frantic and more spacious. In our world of instant texts and constant notifications, a handwritten letter is the exact opposite – thoughtful, intentional, and deeply personal."
The beauty of a handwritten letter is multifaceted. It's a gift of time to the recipient, showing them they're worth the effort of sitting down with pen and paper. But it's also a gift to yourself – that quiet moment of reflection, the satisfaction of completing something tangible, the joy of preserving memories and emotions in your own handwriting." I've made the pledge. Let the corresponding begin!
