For the first day of our challenge together, I wanted to start off with something very simple, but meaningful. Today’s challenge is to write a card to someone who is alone. Think of someone who might enjoy a fun note and get writing! You can make a card or find a blank one hanging around the house.
As for who to send it to: I am writing to an older lady I met at our local Starbucks before it was closed. She lives alone and I’m worried that she might be lonely. In my note, I included my phone number so that she can contact me if she wants. You could also send a note to your best friend, your grandparents, cousins, a teacher, or a neighbor.
If you don’t have a stamp, you can ask your parents. In the United States, the USPS is open for business and ships stamps online. Or, you can write a card for someone who lives nearby and leave it on their porch when you’re out for a walk.
This is a fantastic start. I had Thomas & Eric write cards but I haven’t written yet. I think I will write one today!

Great idea! Also consider electronic options if you can’t get out, e.g. the Swiss postal service offers a free postcard every 24 hours from an app — just upload a picture, add the address and write a message. I sent one to a boy who’s usually at our house every Tuesday for lunch.

What a great idea to start a blog right now. I love that you are writing to someone you are concerned may be lonely – I’m sure your letter will brighten her day. Looking forward to tomorrow’s tip!
