In my closet I have two giant shoe boxes full of handwritten notes. They were given to me by members of the opposite sex while I attended High School and College. There's nothing more exciting then receiving a beautifully handwritten note from a girl that you've been dreaming about getting to know.
I feel bad for kids nowadays. They don't get to experience the same level of personal intimacy that we, the babyboomers and gen-xrs did. A text message is meaningless. It has no heart.
The handwritten note though, with flowers and hearts all over it, those had so much power. Personality. Beauty.
They were real love letters, and one day love letters will be a thing of the past.
I literally just got back from the doctors where I had to fill out a ton of different forms and it felt so archaic and annoying... especially when I had to repeat information on the different forms. It was so slow and arduous and really seemed quite pointless too. I honestly can't wait until I can just scan a card or something to give these people the information they need.
I do understand your question though, and I will admit that receiving a handwritten card or note is still very special.. even more special than a stack of e-mails from someone... but I honestly don't miss it at all.

It's sad when you think about it.
Not even slightly.

No, i like to search on notes and on digital texts. However I still like to draw draft of ideas on paper because of the better feedback and speed
