Mirror {If one day... you forget everything} <--- Taichung, Taiwan


 

Back side of the card

If one day...
you forget everything,
including the person in the mirror,

Write down the people and things you don’t want to forget
on this postcard.
Keep it for your future self. 


The card was actually printed as a part of a public awareness campaign about dementia, and the memory losses it causes.


I've also received two more interesting postcards sent in the same envelope (so they have no post stamps): 

One was from the Postcrossing Meetup held a few years ago. It was themed around International Mountain Day (December 11th - I had never heard about it before). For that reason it depicted Mt. Nanhu (3.472 m), the highest peak of Taiwan.
