Why “Mail” Isn’t What You Think: The Hidden Language of Envelopes!

Have you ever wondered why some letters come in windowed envelopes with no stamps, while others feel more personal and deliberate?

In this video, we explore the difference between mail and post, using a clever metaphor comparing commercial letters to ships at sea. Inspired by Terry Pratchett's Going Postal, this story follows “a guy” who starts collecting unopened mail—and realizes he's surrounded by vessels carrying invisible cargo.

We dive into how modern commercial correspondence really works, why P.O. Boxes act like home ports, and what it means to receive “cargo” that was never meant to arrive with care.

📚 A nod to Terry Pratchett
