No one writes letters anymore.
 
I once tried to write a letter to a friend, and found what movies depict can be true -- a desk littered with crumpled paper, inked fingers, chin in hand.
 
Writing letters is a feat to us now.  Moreso to write handwritten ones.
 
Sadly, I've lost what ability I had in letter writing. I sent letters to friends who have moved to different provinces when I was younger. These days I seek refuge in the convenience of technology.
 
Nonetheless, I don't mind receiving letters. I don't mind reading long ones.
 
I leave my email open most times, waiting for the emails that do not arrive.
 
In the absence of conversations, I don't mind receiving letters.
