Importance Of Sending Handwritten Letters

By Anne Todd


Today's generation seldom communicate through handwritten letters. Writing and sending a handwritten letter takes time and effort, the main reason that makes this form of communication less attractive when compared with the convenience brought by modern communication tools.

But even though today's convenient tools for communication can render the art of writing letters outdated, there are certain experiences that only writing and sending handwritten letters can offer.

For one, sending a letter to a grieving mother, a graduating sibling, an expectant sister-in-law or to a distant loved one is the next best thing to showing up at their doorstep. You can make your presence felt by your family even when you are miles away from them when they receive and read your letter.

For another thing, exchanging handwritten letters keeps the need for real correspondence alive. While social networking sites are good for quick sharing of information, they're not ideal for nurturing human relationships. There's no other way of staying connected than through honest, sincere and intimate communication with people, and handwritten letters can be a great medium for achieving such a goal.

It only shows that there is a more significant reason for reviving this lost art than a misplaced sense of nostalgia. If you're interested in reviving this old form of communication, you have to start writing and sending letters now. Here's a quick overview of the supplies needed for sending handwritten letters.

The stationery serves as your canvas. Stationeries vary in terms of length and design. Keeping your stationeries simple and yet unique would help the recipient focus more on the message.

A fountain pen adds a subtle hint of class to your writing. However, it may take practice and finesse before you get used to it. When you finally learn how to use the pen properly, you can glide it across the page without straining your hands.

It's common for a fountain pen to have an elegant design. For instance, Dunhill namiki pens are painted with symbolic images and natural scenes using lavishly colored pigments. A Namiki pen is appreciated both by collectors and valued clients for its beautiful look and precise performance.
