Hi, Desiree!ย 

Ohhh, that is awesome, then! ๐Ÿ’Ÿ It's just not used as much today. I love writing and decorating physical letters, too. There's just nothing quite like it, right? ๐ŸŽจ It's amazing that you volunteer to do that!

@SilverSeastar oh I'm not sure. A few things came straight to my mind, I would write to my son, I would write letters to thank people like front line workers, and everyday people who show kindness towards others. But somehow I would like to write letters to try and make people aware of bad cults, and those who are suffering โคโค and if course I write to santa Claus๐Ÿ˜

I'm good! How about you? I'm about to leave for my classes in a bit!

๐Ÿ’Œย If letters were still a thing, who would you send most of your letters to?

Hello Silver.

I'm working my way through the system with little confidence. Just groping, reaching, trying new things, expanding, and wondering if I'm in over my head. But I feel hopeful.

I would write to my brother. He does double duty as one of my best friend. I'd also write to prisoners.

Aww, it's lovely to have a family and best friend in one. I love how thoughtful you are to consider writing to prisoners, too. Thank you.ย ๐Ÿ˜Š

  1. Right now I'm okay...could be better, could be much worse.
  2. If letters were a thing & if I had a shot, I'd send one (with photos of me & samples of my art) to Jessica Biel....now that her relationship with Justin Timberlake is apparently falling apart, I would woo her as poetically as I could. The only problem is if she wanted to be with me I'd probably have to move to Los Angeles...yecchhh.

How are you? How was your day? Fare to middling.ย 

If letters were still a thing, who would you send most of your letters to? The only things we mail are bills.ย

Hello, @Gettingbettertoday

I'm glad you had a pretty good day. I hope the following days have been good for you. ๐Ÿ’Ÿ

Yes, I think it's the same for a lot of us. Nowadays we pretty much only do mails for bills.

@SilverSeastar

I believe in letters! I hope they'll be around for a while still.

When I was younger, my grandpa told me I need to learn cursive and I should mail him a letter every week until I did. It was a success ๐Ÿ˜Ž and I still send him letters occasionally to catch up!

Hi, @VioletNotes

Yay, another letter believer! ๐Ÿ™Œ Physical letters are special and heartwarming; there's nothing quite like them, right?

Aww, that is lovely; thank you for sharing. So cool that you succeeded through writing letters to your grandpa! Cursive writing is beautiful. You definitely help keep letters alive by writing them still. ๐Ÿ’™
