I am sitting at my desk today when the mail comes around. For once, there is an envelope that is not immediately recognized as a bill or sales materials. I can't wait to open the envelope.
As I flip it over, I see the return address is from a client I had met the previous day. I have worked with the company for several meetings, but she is a new planner. As I pull the letter from the envelope, I am in shock. The letter was written on a typewriter.
Who even still owns a typewriter? I can't even think of the last time I saw one, much less used it. Yet there is something very endearing about the letter. The words are like that of many thank you letters I have received from clients, nothing unique or special, but the fact that it looks like it must be at least 20 years old makes me read it over and over. Yes, I think I will cherish this client letter more than most.
