Thank-you cards ― heartfelt expressions of gratitude for gifts, services and general kindness ― seem to be rare in an age when the Internet continues to reduce human touch.

Although our society has changed greatly over the past century, the etiquette of thank-you notes has not.

While most people would agree that thank-you notes under these conditions are a necessity, there are still those who forever delay or are forgetful for unknown reasons.

And at no time of the year are thank-you notes more visible (or lacking) than June, the month of graduations, and the beginning of summer parties.

“ It' s a must-do thing. A real ' thank you' does not come by e-mail. It comes in the mail in an envelope. And what comes out of an envelope is a beautiful thing to touch and to handle and to pass around for everyone to read, ”said etiquette expert Letitia Baldrige.

Don't think for a second that Baldrige is old-fashioned. Handwritten thank-you notes ― any handwritten letter, for that matter ― have taken on an air of extra importance in this e-hyper (電子狂躁的) world.

Baldrige remains hopeful that the art may be enjoying a renaissance(復興）.

More than simply obeying rules of etiquette, thank-you cards are a sign of caring.

“They are more important now than ever,”expert Peter Post says. “You are building a relationship. And part of building that relationship is that you recognize it when someone has done something nice for you.”

“The payoff, ”Post says, “can be huge. The more we do it, the more it comes back to us, and it's a benefit to us all. It makes our world a little bit nicer place to live in.”
