  • andradep

    This task seems a little bit crazy, but still fun.
    Anyways… do you have twitter? I’ve seen 2 different profiles claiming to be you, but I’m almost sure they’re fake.

    - Why? There are only few submissions. It’ll be great if there would be some more… and yours of course too. :-)

  • Electra

    PS

    I’ve just sent mine. Leaving a letter for a stranger worked much better this time. :-) I even got two of them! :-D

  • Susana

    are we allowed to put any picture we want? Because I was thinking of putting an animal with the envelope & kind of making it seem like anyone can read it because this puppy I have in mind is very cute & makes everyone want to just grab her so I think I want to do something towards that angle :)

  • Jade Ruby

    This is a great idea, but somehow the uniqueness is difficult for some.

  • Jade Ruby

    The city. So many anonymous people, moving through the supposed grind of daily life. Mechanically going through the motions, as the clock ticks that incessant beat.

    Wait. What’s this? A letter? Who’s it for? To Anyone Who Picks This Up? Oh my! Should I open it?

  • Susana

    Okay I did mine, mine wasn’t great but oh well it’s my first time maybe next time I will try to be more creative, I was just scared I was going to run out of time because I only had like 3 days left & I like to have time to think of ways I could make it cool.

    Well I put mine in & mine is the Doggy photo lol I know it’s not really cool but she is adorable isn’t she :) hehe it was fun to try

    & I totally get what you mean Jade Ruby about the uniqueness being difficult I had a hard one on that one because I couldn’t think of something cool to say or even a cool place to put it haha I guess thats why I used a puppy lol

    I hope you guys like it though :)

    I have been one acquainted with the night
    I have walked out in rain, and back in rain
    I have been one acquainted with the night

    I have look down the saddest city lane
    I have passed by the watchman on his beat, and dropped my eyes unwillingly to explane.

    And further still at an unearthly height a luminary clock against the sky proclaimed
    the time was neither wrong nor right

    I have been one acquainted with the night

  • KaeMegPri

    A thousand times good night.
    A thousand times the worst to want thy light

    Love goes toward love, as school boys from their books

    But love from love, toward school with heavey looks.

    Romeo and Juliet

  • Electra

    It was fun and quite interesting to watch people when they found my letter. Some of them seemed quite scared and didn’t dare to take or open it. Two out of round about thirty people finally read my letter and seemed to enjoy it. Well, at least they had a big smile on the face…. but I won’t tell you what I wrote. ;-D

    Hi Allison.
    Beliefs is like love, it is essential to our lives but it can be destructive.

    My letter to a sranger.
    A bottle in the sea.

    Believe or not believe.

    This message addresses audiences throughout the world.
    Need of man to believe is causing many problems.
    The man often uses beliefs to control others against their will.
    Religions, political parties, unions and religious leaders have
    proven repeatedly that man is very fragile and easily manipulated
    when it comes to belief.
    The origin of war is always the result of misuse of beliefs.
    Whoever you are, rich or poor,
    unknown or famous, do not let your beliefs control your life.
    The more you believe, the more you lose your objectivity
    and you are easily manipulated.
    Be careful and stay master of your destiny.
    If we let others control our beliefs,
    we allow them to control our lives.
    A compassionate humanitarian.

    Have a good week and take care of you.
    Claude.

  • Jade Ruby

    Would that there could be a time when the major belief will be in each Other.

  • Jade Ruby

    When we can say, “I believe in You.”

  • Jade Ruby

    Oh. . . Uh, excellent letter Claude. :)

    Once I had the idea to write a letter to the mailman but I wasn’t actually sure if it would work. I can’t believe I didn’t think of this! Thanx! I’ll write A.S.A.P!
