Grandma's birthday card got me back into handwritten letters
I always saw pen and paper as slow and pointless for keeping in touch. Then my grandma sent a card with her own cursive writing. The time she took and the personal feel of it hit me way harder than any quick text. Now I make a point to write a few letters each year to hold onto this fading way of connecting.

Not sure why it's a 'fading way of connecting'. Feels like making a big deal out of nothing.

Found some old letters from my dad recently and felt the same way.

Isn't it amazing what old handwritten stuff can do? I found a box of notes from my grandma and just got hit with all these memories. Really get what you mean, @palmer.kevin, it's a special feeling that's hard to explain.
