I Missed Receiving Greeting Cards
Thursday, August 14th, 2008When was the last time you have received greeting cards?
So sad for me but the last time I received one is I think about 3 to four years ago. But until now they are like precious wealth that is still kept on my special box. It’s not that nobody have cared to greet me and remembered me on special occasions like birthdays and Christmas… but the thing is, because of our ever developing technology, traditions such as sending greeting cards during occasions have slowly being changed by modernization. Nowadays people would deem it practical, affordable and easy to send greetings via cellular phones and thru internet.
The message is still the same, the intentions is still there, but actually what is being lost is the emotional value. Sending one thru these fast gadgets had become so easy and speedy that sometimes people/ we just take it for granted. The giddy feeling of anticipation for a card to be hand-delivered to you by Mr. Postman is already lost.
Luckily, some nice and appreciative people have taken the initiative to bring back the memories of receiving and sending greeting cards by means of combining modern technology and the traditional ones. Gladly, the tradition of card giving is still alive… and hopefully it will last forever. greeting cards
