Writing Letters
Don’t Know What to Write About? Take a Picture!
A hand-written letter will always be treasured by a family loved-one, especially the “older generation” who still remember when writing letters was the only means of long-distance communication. There is lots of free printable stationery that you can use, but once you print a piece of stationery, what do you write on it? All you need is a topic…
Take a picture! Now you’ve got plenty to write about!
Got kids? Take a picture of your kids playing outside on the swing set. Take a picture of your daughter baking a cake. Take a picture of your son at bat while playing baseball. Take a picture of your favorite rose bush. Maybe a bluejay has landed on a shrub outside your kitchen window---take a picture!
Once you have a picture, simply “talk” about that picture. You don’t need fancy penmanship, you don’t have to know fancy words. Just write your thoughts about the picture. Two lines, ten lines, three paragraphs---it doesn’t matter. Just write whatever comes to mind about the picture.
Now, sign the letter, address an envelope, fold the letter, tuck in the picture, seal the envelope, add a stamp, and mail it. Your letter will be a treasured keepsake by the person who opens it up and finds a little piece of your daily life inside.
