Well right now im in Chennai, attending my Chartered Accountancy classes. This being Christmas Season and me missing everyone back at Cochin, i thought of sending some Christmas Cards and Letters via post, yes "The Indian Post". In this day and age where everything is done via email, you might be wondering why i decided to send snail mail rather than email.Well for me there is something special in sending and receiving posts and letters. Even though now rarely anyone uses the postal service for communication, there is something special that makes me want to buy a card and write a letter on a plain white paper :) and send it via post rather than just logging in on to the internet, accessing your mail, moving your hand all over the keyboard :p and finally hitting the elusive SEND button. Also i believe for the receiver too, there is a totally different feeling when you get a hand written letter or card from your loved one, than when you get an electronic one.
When you get a brightly coloured inland, its just like getting a present. You dont know what it is or who it is from. The feeling of anticipation and excitement that you feel when you get you open it is something very different to receiving the same content or message via email. Nowadays the only snail mail we usually get will be bills etc which are sure to put a frown on us. Im sure that there will be plenty put there who would disagree with me, but, for a change try snail mail once, especially during special occasions like Christmas, New Year, Birthdays etc. I guarantee you that it will surely put a smile on someones face! :)
Merry Christmas!!
