In early January, I began my own Happiness Project. I learned and adjusted many behaviors throughout [more on this later], but my postcard project was the most fun, as I showered my family and friends with love.
I started planning for this project in December by buying some London Cavallini & Co Postcards. Throughout January, I committed to writing out a daily postcard to communicate my love. Given that I’m not physically close to my family and friends, this project made me take time out of my day to verbalize my feelings and to show it through a mindful postcard.
Some of my favorite responses that I received were;
Dad: Good morning, Sweet Carolina, I brought your lovely Postcard to the office today to read from time to time. Your card is SO SWEET! Mom and I loved it! [And if you're wondering, yes, my heart partially melted when I read this email from my wonderful father]
Michaela: Caro, thank you for the lovely card, soo sweet of you!! I have it with myself as a reminder to carry on:) Arrived to Belgium yesterday. Very different to New York. New Life. But am ready to make the most out of it. Today the first day at work, went very well….[To start, I love her. :o) To finish, she's a beautiful rockstar who will do extremely well in Belgium]
