Snail Mail
With the development of new technologies, everybody has at their disposal a lot of means to communicate with other people,such as email, mobile phones, Facebook, and so on. It seems that snail mail is not used any more.
However, there are some people who enjoy writing letters. They consider handwritten letters to be more personal,and more special than emails.They feel excited when they receive a new letter from a pen pal, and generally, their letters are very long.
I think this is a nice habit, not only to communicate with other people, but to practise the writing, which we all tend to neglect once we leave school.

Agree with you.There is something special about a hand written letter.The writing expresses emotions in a way that printed text does not.
