Carnac the Magnificent Predicts for 2020

Dear JP,

Good luck for the comp. and how this triggers truth. I actually got an email Christmas card yesterday! Is that the beat all end?! I have to admit I was offended. Perhaps I shouldn’t have been this particular acquaintance is always touting her ability to “live in the time” minimize the carbon footprint save a tree.

Well, she can have it. I’d like to remain in the pretend charm of the past, thank you very much. Send me a paper card with a winter scene and Christmas tree on it and sign your name in cursive wishing me the blasted merriment of the blasted yule tide greetings of the blasted season!  *cleansing breath*
Excellent write despite my rant
😉H 🌷

O, I do love your rant, my darling sister... LOVE it !  Because that’s exactly how I (and Carnac) feel, too!

I know those a few years younger than me who have forgotten how to do cursive for the years they’ve communicated with keypads!

Sad.  There’s an art that’s dying that I was referring to in my write. I have a collection of cards for every occasion, notes, beautiful stationery w matching envelopes, and a collection of sealing wax & seals.  And along with honing one’s writing skill — it’s an art !

Thank you so much, and you are welcome to come visit for a rant with tea & assorted finger sandwiches ANYtime.🥪☕️

There is an art and elegance to hand written letters that I truly miss. I also miss stationary stores. Now it’s just mass produced ick reduced (although that’s not so bad) but jumbled on the shelves in Marshall’s Homegoods.

And I’ll be over for that tea and those finger sandwiches! They sound delicious and I’m starving 😉

Mmmmmm... I wanna also say

freshly baked gingerbread men & maids, and ginger snaps.  *inhales*

Dee-lish. I think this tiger is getting close to the mood.

you spoke truth with conviction the times has changed were computers have taking on a whole new face, for communication its no longer a call it becomes a text or a voicemail, yes over my 60 years i saw how much the world and people has change right before my own eyes...nicely spilled poetess

Thank you, my new friend.

Ah Yes, the many customs that even those of modest means used to practice & enjoy.  Even our spoken language is full of filler words.  Some People even read my poetry in wonder of the way I’ve learned to express.  I worked years at it because of my passion, and that hasn’t stopped.

I the art of language and how it touches others. The embellishments are delicate icing on the treats people looked forward to receiving for special times, or just because.

you express your thoughts very well poetess i personal miss those days when we use to talk face to face not behind a screen of glass i know those days are gone but it would be a beautiful thing if we just got back to the basic of what it means to be human to be honest and trust worthy...respect

Absolute truth, as the passage of time, dear Stoney. Blessings🙏🏻

yeah truth spoken indeed poetess...respect

Yeah girl! That says it all. Well done Jade.



hugs,

Aawww thank you for your appreciation & support, dearest Kitty!... I suddenly found a good spokesperson to carry my message to the people who feel the same. A rallying cry maybe, rawr!

holiday hugs,
ever

Couldn't relate more to the first stanza... Great writing, Jade, this was an excellent piece!

Why thank you, my friend... a lot are relating to how such beautiful traditions have been forgotten, a sad truth.

O thank you so much, my friend! Such honor you’ve given me... and your words & thoughts here are also beautiful to me.🙏🏻

Feeling the blues around this time of year.
I remember watching Johnny Carson when I was young and it was hilarious.
Great piece.

Thank you, friend Wally, and...

May Allah bless your pen, Sim sala bim. 🙏🏻
