Write a debate on topic. Handwritten letters or online messages .. what u prefer..

Dear Student,

                                                                                   Handwritten letters or online messages

I don’t know a single person who would say that they didn’t enjoy receiving a letter through the post. There’s something very special about knowing that someone has taken the time to write a hand-written letter for you. It doesn’t have to be full of important news- after all, most of our texts and emails to friends are just chatting about normal things, but it feels so much more personal to receive just one letter from someone than to receive the hundreds of texts we get every week.

And it’s not only the person receiving the letter who will benefit from a lovely envelope appearing through their door. I really do think that letter writing can help the writer, too. In a similar way to keeping a diary, writing a letter to a friend can feel very therapeutic. Plus, when we know we’re doing something that will make a friend very happy, we feel good ourselves! And let’s not forget, without the letters written between various individuals in history, we wouldn’t know half as much about their lives. I recently read the letters of Dietrich Bonhoeffer and learned so much about him. When you read a letter, whether it’s one written to you personally from a friend, or a published letter from an important figure in history, it’s as if his or her own words are jumping off the page.


Regards
