Do you still like SNAIL MAIL?

Since the introduction of Internet Messaging through emails and other ways of sending mails online, writing mails manually using a pen and paper were lessen. But because I love to send letters to my family so that they can see my handwriting, I still use old style of writing. Of course, in other things like applying for a job, I sometimes apply online rather than by writing because the job location might be very far and I have to invest much if I come personally just for an interview while nowadays, once you send your CV or resume, they can either call you or send you an email if you are accepted for the second phase of the hiring process. Snail Mail has been part of my lovelife too. I used to write my girlfriend almost every week even if there is nothing important to say. I also send greeting cards to my friends during birthdays, weddings, or important celebrations. I must admit, I am really into the internet, but I will never forget how snail mail taught me to become patient in answers.

Hi Yuan! Sending someone like your love ones and friends a snail mail is different now adays. I still believe that one's effort to make a letter out of a paper using his pen is made with such sincerity and passion. You can really feel the emotions as you read the lines and the content of the letter and what its construe or message. It is memorable to keep in your closet especially if it is important along with your memorabilia as where as deleting an email at an instant.

Hello yuansplace , I like getting snail mail. As a matter of fact I keep all cards and letters. I have gotten over the years.Once in awhile I will send out a written letter but depend on email to get messages back quickly.Only thing I don't like getting in the mail are bills.
