THANKFUL MONTH....Day Seventeen

 

Technology has made our lives easier.  We carry with us a cell phone that we have apps that we can pay bills from; email to receive bills; texting as opposed to lettering writing. 

We reply so much on our electronic devices, myself included.  I am thankful I can make a call from anyplace; send message from anyplace; check my email on the go and read a book and newspaper online. 

Now with that being said, it seems I’m contradicting myself with today’s weird holiday which is ELECTRONIC GREETING CARD Day.  I wrote my acrostic today as  WEIRD HOLIDAYS; focusing on the wacky  holiday of electronic greetings.  I love to pick out cards and send as well as receive, but in these pandemic days, I’ve been doing e-cards.  An e-card gets there quicker but it looses something in the long run. The pleasure of receiving a greeting that the sender took time to write out, stamp and mail.  Of course I’ve gone the extra mile in my electronic greetings and made my own greeting with personal messages; but that doesn’t take away from the fact the card was thought out while searching through them at a card shop.  

Think about which you rather receive and send. 

Until tomorrow....have a nice day and as always Stay Safe.

 (For ELECTRONIC GREETING CARD DAY)

Weird/wacky holidays there’s always a few 

     daily to celebrate 

Electric greeting card or E-card being 

     celebrated today 

It seems that in today’s society things have 

      changed 

Rarely do many send a thought out card by          

     mail anymore 

Days now it’s a text greeting or e-card to the 

        email inbox 

How technology has changed our lives over       

      the years 

Of course it’s a fact high tech has made life 

      easier

Lest forgetting the thoughtfulness  of 

      picking out the perfect greeting card 

Indeed to send an e-card convenient and 

    takes no time 

      

Doing so, the recipient receives the greeting  

     immediately 

As opposed to two or three days going 

     through the postal service 

Yet I’d rather send and receive cards 

      delivered by the mailman 

 Still I’m guilty of sending electronic 

    greetings on occasion
