Letter Contest Revision

        Letter writing and cursive writing being lost arts, I have mixed feelings for. First of all, cursive writing has no value in today's society. Why? Because in society, people like using technology because it’s faster and more convenient. Sure we need cursive to sign papers, but really, that’s the only thing we have to use it for. Also, people could learn just their name in cursive and nothing more. In addition, people never wanted to use symbols for communication like the Aztecs, because we created a better, easier way for communication. That’s kind of the same thing as cursive and our society. Although, I do think that we should preserve cursive because it is part of our history.

        Letter writing, I think does have a value in today's society. Like the article said, "Letters provide a bridge to the people from our past. They are much more meaningful and they are also part of our history. If we never had letters, we would just get texts from people, and that does not give you a feel for someone's mood and how they write". But, a letter does. It is important that they are preserved, because they remind us of our relatives and what life was like back then. Those are my thoughts on letter and cursive writing being lost arts.
