The ways to write a letter time capsule are endless–and much easier than you may think. 

The years go by, and the memories stack up. But remembering them can become a challenge. A picture, so simple to take nowadays, might be worth 1000 words, but does it really carry the same sentiment as when you put pen to paper? Call us biased, but we don’t think so. 

 

Journaling and letter-writing doesn’t need to be time-consuming. A few moments here and there are all it takes. But in just those few minutes, you construct a memory–a keepsake for yourself or someone you love when you write a letter. 

 

Recently, we were inspired by a woman who gifted her daughter a beautiful stack of letters for her 18th birthday. One for each year, the letters carried mementos from each year of her daughter’s life. The effect was two-fold, allowing the mother to relive her daughter’s life in the act of writing out her memories, and for her child to enjoy a personal keepsake and a lasting tribute to her life. Is there a greater act of love? In its simplicity, perhaps not. And it got us thinking… it’s so easy for us to do the same.
