I was teaching my daughter cultural and creative arts today and I discovered that she doesn't know what is invitation cards. Further enquiries show that she has never seen any card in her life. And I just remembered that there is a part of our lives that is missing.

While growing up, it was usually to receive greetings, exam success, emotional, invitation and ceremonial cards. We used to have a heap of cards, and they were beautiful. They come in different designs and shapes. When someone is sick, it is common to receive get-well-soon cards. Those days we usually give girls beautiful cards to express our love to them.

It seems everything has gone online. It is common to send digital cards to emails, social media and other platforms without printing physical cards. I have not received any card since this year, and that's a shift from what it used to be.

But I cherished physical cards more than these online ones. Going to the hospital and seeing different cards wishing the patient a quick recovery is wonderful. Arranging and reading those wedding, birthday, and Christmas cards is wonderful. Sometimes, we keep cards and read them for memories. Watching your crush reading your card and smiling gives you so much excitement. But it seems those days are gone.
