I love You, Great Job, Thank you. . .
These are words we often neglect as we go about our everyday lives.
Elphos is dedicated to bringing these words – these feelings and encouragements– into the lives of the people around us.
How many days do we walk to our mailbox – expecting at least one advertisement, a bill, or if we are lucky, some car insurance company telling us how low our rates could be?
When was the last time you remember the joyous feelings of finding more in your mailbox than just junk mail? Or that thrill as you glimpse at a handwritten letter from a dear friend amongst the bills, or the excitement of reading every word that your friend took their precious time to write. You’ll remember too, then, how loved and important that letter made you feel.
Elphos is an attempt to revitalize those feelings that a positive letter can give – as well as an attempt to bring the feelings of hope, happiness, and appreciation to others around us.
