A letter is never ill-timed; it never interrupts. Instead it waits for us to find the opportune minute, the quiet moment to savor the message. There is an element of timelessness about letter writing.

Letters remind us that when we write we can bring back the best of times, even make time stand still, if only for a few minutes.
