I have to confess that I love sending cards, whether it is birthday cards, thank you cards, new home cards or Christmas cards. I like everything about the process, the occasion it is celebrating, picking a card that suits that person, and sending it off with good wishes.
But the advent of modern technology, has meant that more and more people rely on electronic communications to send their good tidings. There are some good reasons for this, environmentally there is paper and card, some of which can’t be recycled, postage costs, as well as the time and effort it takes, when we are ever increasingly feeling crunched for time.
But interestingly whilst many of us may now send e-cards, Royal Mail’s statistics suggest that over 80% of us would in fact prefer to receive a proper printed card. And there are sound reasons for this, many of us see them as part of Christmas tradition, often they will form part of the decorations in the home, and their arrival marks the beginning of the festive season of goodwill and cheer.
Surprisingly it is not actually young people that are turning their back on physical cards as you might imagine, giving they are the more likely category to embrace technology. Those in the 18-24 bracket really like receiving actual cards, and this age group are also quite likely to make their own cards to send to family and friends.
I know some people don’t like to receive the obligatory letter that goes along with some Christmas cards, but I think they are fun! If you can’t brag a little about your latest grand-child, or son/daughters’ achievements at Christmas, then, when can you? I think these letters should be embraced as a great way to stay in touch with what is going on in the lives of people you perhaps see infrequently.

I had a reading with Teya today. I was blown away by her understanding of my current situation. She made some very positive predictions and advice. I look forward to the outcome. Teya has a lovely warm personality and it radiates in her voice. Towards the end of the reading at my request she brought through some family members who passed over. I found her descriptions and messages spot on! I would love to connect with her again. Many thanks.
