Living in a world of Snapchat and Instagram, yet our generations hardest hill to climb is communication. Endless characters to use and send yet with no meaning at all. Instant messaging with almost instant disatisfaction. An A4 blank white sheet, a canvas for your expressions. Joy, sadness, love and loss, all which can be painted with only one colour emotion. Ink illuminating more than light on a phone ever could. The beauty of letters with their poetic constructions. From Heaneys letters of longing, to a sixteen year olds first love away from home. Both understandably an act of strong passion and weakness to love The choice of words hitting with a weight the writter and reader could only translate. This is the sacrifice made by those who are oblivious to it. The simplicity and satisfaction. The lost joys, of a simple letter

A Simple Letter
