I do write real letters and also enjoy receiving them. I’ve read letters that my parents wrote to each other over the years and treasure their thoughts from before I was born.
Sadly, I doubt that the next generation will be able to read the few letters being written these days. For some unfathomable reason, educators have decided that children don’t need the skills of reading or writing cursive. So much to lose!
I do, both locally and international. It is fun to receive a letter or card, and know that someone thought about you and wanted to do the extra thing. Actually one of my international friends and I have a tradition that when we travel, we send each other postcards. Obviously not when we travel together - then we just share photos if we've each taken something different.
I vote, too, that we start a letter writing campaign!
I still write letters and I encourage my kids to write letters too. I love to get mail even when it is just junk mail and bills, but I really love it when it is something personal. My kids were getting disappointed that they never got any mail, so I started having them write people as well.

yes, I love to write and get letters. You can put so much feeling into your letters, and you can read them over and over.
Very true.
Heel jammer maar ik schrijf geen brieven meer.
Alles gaat via de wats ap
It is a shame! We should start a letter writing movement 🧐
