When I got home the other day, I found an envelope waiting for me. It gave me great joy as I thought, "Who's sent me this lovely red envelope with gold stars on the back?"

In a busy world where everyone is too rushed for everything, we need to stop sometimes to remember the meaningful moments. How to be a sweet person? 2.. Rediscover snail mail.
