Do you save the old greeting cards and letters that you've received from people? Throw them away? If you do keep them, do you ever go back and look at them again or do they just sit in a box forever?
 
I have kept old letters and greeting/birthday cards from my Dad. Now that he no longer with me, I like to read the letters and cards every once in awhile. Makes me feel better to have something he has said or felt about me even if it's only in written form now.

Aww that is nice. :)
How many letters / cards do you have from him? What are they about?
 
^ I never counted them to be honest. I have them all in a large wooden box. They about things we did together, birthday cards, holiday cards, all kinds of personal stuff. I also have all his medals in the box as well.
 
I think I have a 4 page break up letter from an old GF around here somewhere. I don't know why I saved it but there is no point in keeping it if I come across it.
 
^ Good grief! It took her 4 pages to get her point across? :s
 
Yeah. :blah:

I dont really save greeting cards but I wish I still had the ones from my mom. She never really wrote me any letters but would write letters on blank cards.
 
I should have a pile of cards, somewhere. I tend to keep them until I decide to clean out my drawers... which isn't often :P
