Dear Seth, You’re only three years old, and at this point in your life you can’t read, much less understand what I’m going to try to tell you in this letter. But I’ve been thinking a lot about the life that you have ahead of you, about my life so far as I reflect on what I’ve learned, and about my role as a dad in trying to prepare you for the trials that you will face in the coming years. You won’t be able to understand this letter today, but someday, when you’re ready, I hope you will find some wisdom and value in what I share with you. You are young, and life has yet to take its toll on you, to throw disappointments and heartaches and loneliness and struggles and pain into your path. http://zenhabits.net/a-letter-to-my-son-on-starting-out-in-life/

Les formules de politesse

http://www.maildesigner.com/formules-politesse.htm La formule finale est plus ou moins conviviale : " (l'expression de) mes sentiments distingués" , " (l'expression de) ma considération distinguée ", " (l'expression de) mes sentiments dévoués ", " (l'expression de) ma profonde gratitude ", etc. Si le terme "l' expression " est omis, la formule de politesse est moins déférente. Attention à ne pas écrire "Veuillez agréer l'expression de nos salutations distinguées". On exprime des sentiments, pas des salutations.

How to write a thank you note

Gratitude is a virtue every man should cultivate. Yet gratitude means nothing if you haven’t mastered the art of expressing it. A man should use every opportunity to express to those around him how much he appreciates their love, support, and generosity. One of the key ways of expressing gratitude is the thank you note. Unfortunately, many men today completely overlook this aspect of etiquette and consequently, break the hearts of sweet little grandmas everywhere. Every gentlemen should be knowledgeable of the when’s and how’s of writing thank you notes. http://artofmanliness.com/2008/10/23/the-art-of-thank-you-note-writing/

But before we start that, we wanted to do a special post on the single piece of oratory almost every man will be asked to give at least once: the best man speech.

http://www.lifehack.org/articles/communication/how-to-write-in-a-thousand-words-or-less.html I’ve written about editing , eliminating distractions , getting started – it’s time to get down to basics. Too many people don’t know how to write. Period. Yeah, they can make marks on paper, but when it comes to making a clear, compelling, and meaningful statement, especially one more than 140 characters long, they fail.

Sous l’intitulé Malaise dans les musées , Jean Clair publie un essai – en réalité un pamphlet – dans lequel il entend dénoncer les dérives de la politique culturelle française, dont le point ultime serait le projet du Louvre Abu Dabi. Daté « Pentecôte 2007 », l’ouvrage de Jean Clair est comme une réponse à chaud à l’accord signé le 6 mars précédent entre la France et les Emirats Arabes Unis et actant la construction d’un musée universel. Il vient après la parution en décembre 2006, par ses soins, ceux de Françoise Cachin et Roland Recht, d’une tribune dans Le Monde intitulée « Les musées ne sont pas à vendre », point de départ d’une pétition protestant contre ce projet de musée. Evangiles selon Jean Clair Le pamphlet, tout entier porté par le désenchantement, est composé de trois parties. La première, intitulée « La Simonie », résume toute la pensée de son auteur. http://laviedesidees.fr/Malaise-dans-les-musees.html#nb24

How to kick-start the writing habit

But it probably means that the creator knows what s/he is doing and what works. Plus, I have found that that quite a few of Stephen King’s books – like Insomnia , The Long Walk or The Running Man - are really good reads (and sometimes even greater films ).

How to write a letter without envelopes, cutting or glue

The letter is the envelope! It holds itself closed, secured by the stamp - so it doesn't even need any glue. You use the entire sheet of paper, so there's nothing to cut either! Fill a sheet with doodles and crazy writing. Keep in touch with distant friends, or get in touch with someone you haven't spoken to in a while in a way that has more to say than an email.
