The magic of thank you notes.



Call me old fashioned, but I believe thank you notes are a must. I cannot emphasize it enough. Whether or not you were raised to do this, it’s a good idea to get in the habit of sending your thank yous in hand-written form. Whether it’s a gift, an interview, or simply a note to show your gratitude for a lovely evening, there’s something to be said about taking the time to write a kind word or two. And I don’t mean via text.

I got nothing against Facebook or Twitter. I use them daily. But I think that to "like" it´s not the same that to love, "retweet" it´s not the same as having an opinion, just like "me too" it´s not an "I love you". Words are precious, specially today since there is so much to say and so many people hearing. They are the brigdes to a world of emotions, poetry, art and the personality that exist in everyone of us. 

Let’s face it—we live in a digital world where people communicate in 140-characters or less and are constantly emailing and texting. The stream for communication is non-stop and instant, which is why discovering a hand-written note in your mailbox is such a refreshing surprise.
