As a kid, my parents always used to go to antique shops. To find things for the house, a unique housewarming gift or just to browse. I was always fascinated by the boxes and boxes of unsent postcards.

I always wondered why there were so many. My parents bought just enough cards for the folks they wanted to send them to. They never had extras. I don't know if this was frugality or what.

As an adult, I travel a ton for work now and I have probably over a hundred postcards. Some filled out. Most blank. I don't think anyone wants to hear from me so I just go my thing. Slowly collecting postcards that will probably get tossed when I die.
