Outgoing Mail to the USA and Canada + Day 12 of Love Letter Writing
By Lifeofpjern - December 13, 2019
Today is Day 12 of 12 Days of Love Letter Writing. Last Day! Today's Christmas cards are headed to Soo-Zin from Kentucky for the More Love Letters Christmas Campaign and to the Canadian Armed Forces.
To Soo-Zin in Kentucky:
Soo-Zin's daughter shared Soo-Zin's story. She wrote: “My mother, Soo-Zin, is an amazing mother of three children. She has always been there for me and my siblings whenever we needed her, and often we have taken her presence for granted. She moved to the United States from South Korea in 2002 with the intent of staying for only five years–so that my father could get his college degree. Five years, ten years, and even fifteen years have gone by, and we are still living in the United States. Living in a foreign country with no relatives and raising three children (with little help from her husband) has taken a toll on her. As I've gotten older, I've realized all the late nights she has spent crying from stress and depression. Unable to work in the United States and facing a language barrier, Soo-Zin laments constantly about how she feels like a failure and sees no purpose in life. My mother is a smart woman and the best mother, but over the past few months, she has been struggling with generalized anxiety disorder along with her severe depression. She has been attempting to cope with this illness on her own, and although she is hurting on the inside, she puts up a strong front for children. I want her to realize that she is a strong woman, and also that many people care about her well-being.”
Letters are welcome in English and Korean. If you would like to write to Soo-Zin, please do so at:

Another year checked off, now that I'm done with the12 Days of Love Letter Writing. I always love sending out mail, especially Christmas Cards, so it's always a delight participating in the 12 Days of Love Letter Writing.
