Spring into Writing

Today’s topic is “Spring into Writing” and our project: “KleeNEXT Stationery”(Repurposed Kleenex box)

KLEENext Stationery An afterlife for your Kleenex boxes

What is Spring? There are numerous definitions out there but today there are three from the Free Dictionary dot com that i’d like to use:

1. “to develop or originate” (The idea sprang from a chance meeting.)
2. (intr; often foll by up) to come into being or appear suddenly factories springing up
3. the act or an instance of jumping or leaping

Why these three choices? Because I wish to share with you that Springing into Writing means:
-it is a marvellous idea to develop the habit of writing a letter to your friends especially those who are geographically distant
-that the sudden appearance of a mail from you will bring joy to somebody’s life and may even cause…
– some jumping and leaping on the part of the receiver… hahahaha

In case the article above doesn’t sound convincing enough to grab pen and paper to write to a friend, please take the time to read this beautiful poem:

If you have a tender message,
Or a loving word to say,
Don’t wait ’til you forget it,
But whisper it today!


The tender words unspoken,
The letter never sent,
The long-forgotten messages,
The wealth of love unspent…


For these some hearts are breaking,
For these some loved ones wait,
Then give them what they’re needing,
Before it is too late!
