1. That the emails and post I get are largely impersonal. For example, my email inbox regularly receives BCUK notification messages (I could hug you!), pointless and annoying Facebook notifications (very rarely is there one about new wall post), forwarded on emails, other mailing lists and junk. My post will include, bank statements (informing me of my spending), promotional leaflets from various places, and occasionally a jiffy bag containing something from Amazon or Read it-Swap it.
Very rarely, is there an email or letter from a friend describing news, or asking me how I am - even a letter discussing politics/religion/whatever! All I hope for, is a letter/email from a friend that they've sent, without me having to ask, or make the first move. No wonder I get so depressed, occasionally! Honestly, it's like the old saying is true, "Out of sight. Out of mind."
