The world sometimes seems to fall apart all around us. The horror and tragedy of the passenger plane being hit by a missile fired by separatist militants over Eastern Ukraine, the seemingly never-ending war between Israel and Hamas, the ISIS insurgency in Iraq, the Syrian conflict, disputes in the South China Sea, a South American refugee crisis… well you get the point.
Sometimes we need to map out a way to get away from all the troubles of the world. Normally, I would recommend vodka… but given that we can’t simply drink ourselves into oblivion 24/7, postcrossing seems to be a good alternative.
One way to enjoy the hobby of postcrossing is to collect certain types of cards. On my profile, I list that I enjoy map cards. I received this wonderful one from Belarus. It may not solve the world’s problems but it does take the edge off them for a bit. At least for me. For yourself, I suggest you find your own personal road map to tranquility…. or at the very least hit the liquor store for a bottle of vodka.
