Outgoing envelope pics

To all who post their outgoing mail art, specifically addressed envelopes, i invite u 2 be mindful & consider waiting 2 post ur pics until its received buy the recipient. iv’e seen a few pieces 4 me this past week alone & honestly, it really bummed me out. the element of surprise is part what excites us in receiving mail art, is it not?

    I'm with you.  The joy of finding unseen mail in the box is the biggest rush of all!  Let me be surprised, I promise to post (soon).

      Getting ready to blog about the incoming mail from you, dear Sam, when I came across this discussion. I totally agree with your sentiments about waiting to share outgoing mail. I like to be surprised too.

      You have left this planet over two months ago. I am so glad that I had gotten to know you, even for a short time. It seems that mail art brought you much pleasure despite the fact that you were bedridden.

      Sam, your bright spirit and sense of humor made (and still makes) me smile. Even in the thread of this discussion your humor was evident. I especially like your comment from July 2, 2019. You said "i think its just a mindfulness thing, perhaps ppl get so busy & don't have the awareness 2 stop @ think that they might b taking the air right out of the mail art surprise tire."  I love that!

      Anyway...thanks for the mail, and see you on the other side. God Bless You!
