Love letters.

by Arnica @ 2007-11-27 - 09:41:35

Call me old-fashioned, sentimental and romantic if you want. I could think of worse things to be!

I think in this hustle and bustle age it's very important to let your loved one know exactly how you feel about him or her. Why not do something a little bit special from time to time. A little gift, a surprise telephone call or text message or even the occasional love letter?

This from Wikipedia:

A love letter is a popular way to express feelings of love in written form. Sometimes sent in the mail, and increasingly by electronic mail, the letter may be anything from a short and simple message of love to a lengthy explanation of feelings.

Sometimes letters are preferable to face-to-face contact because they can be written as the thoughts come to the author. This may allow feelings to be more easily expressed than if the writer were in the beloved's presence. Further, expressing strong emotional feelings to paper or some other permanent form can be an expression within itself of desire and the importance of the beloved and the lover's emotions. The expression of feelings may be made to an existing love or in the hope of establishing a new relationship. The increasing rarity and consequent emotional charm of personal mail may also serve to emphasize the emotional importance of the message.

So what are you waiting for? ..................

ps - just after writing this I came across this article from today's (online)Telegraph. Strange co-incidence! :yes:

It is important to keep reminding our loved ones how much we love them. I should do it more often really.

It's also a case of getting the balance right. I think that's why an occasional 'surprise' is very important.

Very true. If we say it constantly it loses it's impact.

You are so right! :yes:

Unless of course your love letter is written in the sand...

That too - though I've never had one of those myself!

Just as well really, eh? Who'd be laughing and who'd be crying?

Now you've really lost me! :??: I suspect it's something to do with some song lyrics perhaps?

Mr Penry and I still write love letters to each other... I love writing and receiving them. Even if it's only a few lines.... altogether now - aaaaaaaaaah!

Those are still just fine - as long as you express your feelings to each other! :yes:

I now recall those wonderful words which you will also remember ' Have I told you lately that I love you ?'

I am upset if a day goes by when I don't tell that girl how much she is loved and appreciated. david.

I'm sure she knows only too well! :yes:
