Once again: Swedish can be so easy!
When you write a formal letter »to whom it may concern«, in German you have to address it to »Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren« which literally means »very honored ladies and gentlemen«.
In Swedish there are some more possibilities, but very easy rules. If you write a formal letter to an unknown woman you should write to »Bästa fru« or to an unknown man »Bäste herrn«—just like the English »Dear Madam« or »Dear Sir«. The gender-neutral version is »Bäste herr eller fru«—again like »Dear Sir or Madam« in English. However, this salutation is not so common in Sweden due to the very informal use of language. Since the abolishment of most polite forms in the 60’s, you can just write: »Hej!«
There is one exception if you want to send your formal letter to the king or queen. In this case, only »Eders Majestät« (»Your Majesty«) is correct in Sweden, while a letter to The Queen should should open with »Madam«.

“I feel as if someone had uprooted my heart to see how it was growing.”
These letters were heartbreaking.

Take me back to the time when we could touch and hold things, wrap our fingers all around it, compare it, feel it. A feeling far deeper than a dull quick sweeping glance off of a rectangular shaped screen.
Handwritten Letters have that ineffable gesture that no text messages can match.

Hey God, are you even out there? It truly feels like you aren’t. I’ve barely been getting through and nothings changing. No matter how hard I try I’m stuck. They say have patience, but none of my prayers to you have been answered. I don’t mean to sound bitter, but please I’m hurting. I can’t see myself living to next year, I can barely see myself making it two days from now. But hey, have patience. I’m sorry if i’m being disrespectful, but I’m at my breaking point. I can’t take this. I’m not strong and perfect like you.
TRAVIS SCOTT.
forgotten letters, earl grey tea, antiques kissed by time, and a hair ribbon to keep your focus on the intricate words lost in the volumes of authors long gone by.

REPOST PLEASE: We, at Azaad Pakistan, are sending mails to the survivors of the Peshawar Attack. To all those innocent kids at APS who saw their friends being brutally massacred right in front of them. Let’s tell them, we stand beside them in all their sorrows. And we are extremely blessed to have these brave children as a part of our nation. We are proud of them! Send your letters at [email protected] Facebook statuses can’t do a lot for the survivors whose lives have been disturbed forever. Your few kind words definitely can.
