Reading your wonderful tips, I have to say it -- every letter can be a love letter when it comes from the heart. It may not be romantic love, but just the act of writing is an act of love.

"Because learning to express love is, in the end, mostly a gift to yourself." I could've chosen any number of lines I love from today's post. Most of all I love your five tips for writing because they're great for any day of the year.

You are right–love letters are better than emails and ... perhaps chocolate. I have a box of love letters my husband wrote to me when he was in the Army Reserves Training Camp. I re-read them on Valentine's Day, shed a few tears and have a few chuckles.

I love this Gloria! Love that you reread his letters. That's so special. Maybe topped only by nibbling chocolate while you read.... x, f
