Do you keep old Christmas/birthday cards or do you toss them seconds after you read them?

I keep them. They're getting quite rare now though as fewer people are actually sending cards.

@Zoranna Very true. I have some I've kept through the years. Some of the people who sent them have passed on so they are even more special to me now.
Zoranna · F
@Tomorrow Yes, those ones are particularly special now.

I generally keep Christmas and birthday cards unless things have gone south between me and the people I received said cards from and we end up permanently losing contact, in which case I burn them.

@BlueJay749 I usually just toss the ones I don't want. Burning is too much trouble. Lol.

@Tomorrow To each his own.

Usually keep Christmas cards year to year, unless it’s exceptional birthday cards get tossed soon after.

@SageWanderer Gotcha.

@DiegoWolfe I do as well. And some friends. Many who've passed away. It's nice to reread them sometimes.

@Tomorrow in all honesty im a empath, so the reminders of love always feel good... i actually kept letters from my ex for over 7 years and had melocholly feels after reading them feeling all the emotions fresh again.

@DiegoWolfe I understand that. I have old letters and emails from people who are important to me. Those feelings come rushing back when I dare re-read them. I dare not very often...
Keep some of them for years & then toss. Theres Just too many I wish I could keep them all.

@Cutiepi23 Me too but that wouldn't be feasible.

Depends on if they have extra special meaning.

I used to tape them to the wall till the tree came down. One never been good at thank you notes and Christmas cards. I just called left a message usually now I don't get cards. My mother sent me some birthday cards I got from 3 years old to about 7 maybe 8. Cartoon-y
