With the advent of technology, postal mail service nowadays seem to be scarce, if not about to reach the state of extinction. For sure everyone has been enjoying the convenience of sending e-cards for the holidays over cyberspace; no fuss waiting for three to ten days as you can easily receive one within minutes.

So, imagine my dumbfounded-slash-surprised look when I found this one sitting just above the TV set this afternoon. A belated card for Christmas from my aunts living in Canada.

Mr. Postman, thank you for taking time to deliver this mail to our doorstep. Your efforts despite the holiday rush is very well appreciated. While cyberspace E-cards are more convenient, nothing still beats a personal note like this.
