A love-letter is so many things. It is your truth put to paper in a loving and compassionate way. It is your own history documented by you in your own handwriting. It is any letter meant to ask for love everlasting, to promise forever, to woo, to seduce, to convince, to ask for love, to ask for more, to wish for the moon, to offer love and for appreciating anything or anyone at all and at any time you feel the love or remember that you once felt it. A love letter is a chance to put your best self on paper.
I am not saying that every letter is a love letter or that it needs to be. I am saying that a letter can be a love letter if you want it to be. And I am saying that often it should be. Why?
A love-letter is a gift of what is in our hearts. It is a gift tailor-made by you for (usually) just one person in this world. But, if you think the gift is just for the person who gets the letter, think again. It is a gift for someone else as well. Yes, for you, the writer. The gift to you is releasing what is in your heart, sharing your thoughts, speaking your mind and stating your case. What a gift it is to you, the writer, to learn how to say exactly what you mean in the clearest and dearest way possible. And what a gift it is to you to be able to give your love to someone else. And of course bathing in the positive of all you feel is an unmatched joy.
A love letter is a wonderful way to invite someone into your life either as a friend or a sweetheart. A love letter may be the best way to show someone the way out of your life in the most gentle and loving way possible while never losing sight of what you once loved about the very person you must now sweep off your path.
Whatever you want to say to someone who has touched your life if it is your truth put to paper in a loving compassionate way can be considered, in our view, as a love letter. The important thing is to say what you feel while you still have the chance. Why not express the thoughts, the love and the gratitude and make someone else's life richer?
