Anyone else glad to say goodbye to 2018? The world seems to be a bit of a mess at the moment, with lots of change and upheaval on many levels and in many countries.
Perhaps we will move towards a bit more peace on earth this year.
I'm going to post one of my favorite exchange envelopes I received last year, from Patty D. I can imagine her patiently and quietly making this wonderful creation, shutting out the chaos to draw this wonderful bird which is perfectly accompanied by the solar eclipse stamp from 2017.
Un bel oiseau qui apporterait de bonnes nouvelles pour l'année 2019 ! Happy new year Phillip !
ReplyDeleteBonne année, Fafa!
ReplyDeleteMail and mail art can be a way to escape... But I like to think that it is also a way to make the world a bit better, a letter (or a post) a time :)
ReplyDeleteIt definitely makes the world better for the recipient and the creator, a very good point. Plus, hopefully, anyone looking at your blog.
DeleteYes. 2018 was a bit... challenging... personally and politically. I tried to keep a balance by seeing the positive, it worked sometimes. All the best to you Phillip in the New Year, and to us all.
ReplyDeleteA bit crazy all round, I think. And we're all still here in 2019, so that's good. Happy New Year to you , too, Carroll.
