Every person’s handwriting has always been unique, a signature of their soul. This is changing.Handwriting is becoming like the digital age, uniform blocks of letters printed, not scripted. So when you find a collection of old letters, the beauty of the writing causes pause. An art form on their own. Most of the time, the letters record ordinary happenings, a train ride, a wedding, school, a relative or maybe a new love. It doesn’t matter, there is beauty in the writing. We write and strive all our lives to become the unique beautiful person the writing promises. You wish you could see the person, ask them about their lives, watch them write. You can’t of course, but you can add your own hand, a clipping or photo to paint in their lives, to imagine different happenings. All in honor of the art that flowed in ordinary letters from their hands….
ORDINARY LETTERS
There was a time when we wrote letters. Hand writing that often conveyed more than the words they wrote.
