Instant messaging has made it incredibly easy to stay connected with loved ones, no matter the distance. Platforms like WhatsApp now see over two billion users each month as of February 2025, making it one of the most popular messaging apps worldwide. You can text, send photos, share voice notes, and even call—all in an instant. And if someone gets too annoying or bizarre, there’s a simple fix. One tap and block, and you’re free of strange messages. Digital life does have its perks.
But when it comes to old-school communication like letters and packages, things aren’t that simple. There’s no ‘block’ button for a suspicious parcel. Some people throw unwanted deliveries away. Others? They snap a photo and share it online for the world to guess what’s inside. It’s fascinating how physical mail still carries stories—some sweet, some odd, some deeply puzzling. And if anyone knows this world well, it’s the people who deliver them.
