REAL TIME.
SNAIL MAIL.
TIME TAKEN
TO STAMP AND POST.
IN THE BOX.
THROUGH THE AIR.
these are from taos friendships formed at workshops at the mabel dodge luhan house.
Carol Austin sent the first talisman with the cross. on the rothko calendar now.
yesterday, the joy of opening a card from my friend renee in
denver, dancers around the fire, so old blinking light on margarittas
in arroyo seco. two georgia postcards that i bought at the harwood museum there this summer.
the red asian silk piece is from caroline in montreal. and a card from sas in berkeley.
SO YOU SEE, IT'S NOT JUST THE MOUNTAIN I LOVE THERE.
and from a card from my vllbff, this quote:
"FRIENDSHIPS don't just 'happen', but the best ones seem to fall into place right from the start, naturally and easily, as if they were always meant to be..."
How wonderful to get gifties in the snail mail. And, BEAUTIFUL ones at that. I know that I treasure my blogging buddies. :)Bea

ReplyDeleteIn these electronic days, it truly is an extra special treat to get something 3-D in the mail.
ReplyDeleteLovely quote, it's good to have friends. It's the best about the www, for me, that it's not only "unreal", but also a huge exchange of everything, including handwritten letters and little presents.
ReplyDeleteI can sense your delight in opening up the little gifts in the mail-- great idea.
ReplyDeleteyup! now it's my turn to reciprocate!! {isn't that a fun word?}
ReplyDeleteReal mail is still the best. And what you received seem like treasures from friends.
