Last year I came to know about Slowly from a post by a facebook friend. When I was in school I used to write letter to my friends. I used to write letter to our relatives to wish in festivals. Now in the era of social media we all almost forget to write a letter. It brings back the lost art, the forgotten habit.
In the recent past I was not in the good mental states. I was going through some hard time of my life. I felt unwanted, cheated. I felt my life has been ended. It is not working as I want. That time it came to me like a digital blessing of science. I embraced it as my friend. It gives some friends who I can share my feelings with even without knowing their physical identity. I think it doesn’t matter in friendship. We can share our sorrows, happiness, problems which pains us everyday. I am looking forward some more friends who can change my life. It is amazing that we can know about our world through the people by their eyes, by their hearts. When I feel sad, feel lonely I come here and write a letter to disclose what is happening in my mind, in my heart. Sometimes we don’t have anyone to listen the words from our heart. Sometimes we need someone to talk, chat, share few words but we don’t have someone around like that. That time it helps like a bosom friend who come close to absorb all the grief.
I feel excited thinking about talking with someone from the other parts of the earth. For A travel loving person like me who can’t go for travel much due to lack of friends, accompanion, it is like roaming around the world sitting at my home. Slowly is like a cool wind in the hot day of summer and hot bath in the day of cold winter for me. Thanks for bringing back the feel of letter writing and making a gift for us like Slowly in this busy digital era of various chat aps when people don’t time for writing.
