KIDS, CHILDREN, PEOPLE YOUNG AT HEART (LIKE ME!)
I have this new idea. It seems the Post Office is not as functional these days, in my opinion. That’s why we are changing our Policy and sending all of the hand-painted saint medal packages you order by PRIORITY MAIL. It costs more, yes it does. Yet, Regular NON-Priority Packages seem to move slower or become lost. It’s quite irksome and confusing because I thought new technology would make the Post Office more efficient, not less. I’m not getting that impression, though….
So, I have an idea! I’ve started decorating my cards, my mail going out – the envelopes, with lots of color! Using Crayons, Stickers, Drawings, Extra Words, (“CONTENTS INSIDE”) Sharpies (my favorite!) I’ve never seen a Sharpie I did not like – except when they run out of ink.)
Moving along …. MY IDEA!
If you have a child or if you know a child or are a teacher, think about having them send a Self-Addressed Stamped Envelope to me and I will send them something from my trip to Paris or Avignon, or Venasque or Rome. Teach kids about SASE’s. Teach them about MAIL! Have a whole class send SASE’s! I’ll the use the envelopes to mail it back!
It seems like that would be fun! I sent my young niece a letter one time and she was so excited! As a society, we have become totally enraptured by AI, Texting, and overall, quick responses. (“TLDNR” – Too Long Did Not Read is so sad!)
TLDNR - EDITORIAL: It sure does not seem TLDNR is a useful way to teach anyone about patience or careful thought or rumination! END OF EDITORIAL
So, if you like the idea just help your kid send me a SASE and I will return it to them with some stickers or a card or something else that’s kid-likable – I’ll have some kids pick the stuff out!) I hope I get some SASE’s from kids. They can make their envelopes colorful and fun. I bet the colorful and fun envelopes get more attention from the Post Office. Maybe! “MS2M” – Makes Sense to Me! ( I made that one up!)
Kids, Adults and even your friends can receive something from www.SaintsforHOPE.com ~ www.SaintsforSinners.com just by sending an SASE. It’s easy for you to fill out an envelope and surprise a friend or relative who certainly will not be expecting a memento from Europe.
