Post Secret Sunday: Dear Sender

Source


Dear Luv,

     You don't know me and I don't know you. We're just two out of over 6 billion strangers in this world. And yet somehow we're all connected. 

     I hope and pray that each time your thoughts come to this, you will eventually take a step back. I hope that you stop and wonder what tomorrow would be like instead of think, "this is it."  

     It may seem like it sometimes, but you are not alone. This postcard of yours is you reaching out. This blog post is me holding your hand. We are 6 billion strong.
