OK, all this week we’ve been talking about letters, but I have also mentioned emails and blog posts, and blog comments as variants on the “letter”.
What do you think?
Will emails ever replace letters?
Are blog posts a completely different thing?

What do you want to be sure you remember? How are you feeling right now? What are your hopes and fears for the future, what are the values you live by and would like to be sure you continue to do so?

Letters to lost loved ones
Sometimes, when you are getting over the loss of a loved one, it can help to write them a letter with all the things you said or wanted to say. If you have lost a loved one, whether recently or a while ago, why not write them a letter, tell them what’s been going on and why you miss them.

A Letter To My Younger Self
Have you made any mistakes in your life? Who hasn’t, whether they’re big or smaller. Wouldn’t it be good to be able to write a letter to your younger self?
If you could have it sent back in time to offer advice, help or support, what would you say?
If you can’t think of an age pick 19 (unless you’re UNDER 19 of course!).

This week's theme - Letters
A letter is a great way to express yourself in writing, whether writing a real letter, one that is never meant to be read, or even using the letter format for any kind of writing.
Today's prompt is to: Write a letter to your loved one(s). It's probably something we never do in this day and age.
Tell them why you love them.
Tell them what you love most about them.
Tell them the things that you never usually get to say.
Write to your kids, your partner, your mother, your sister, or brother.
This would be an appropriate activity perhaps once a year.
If you’re brave, you could send the letter.
Or post it on your blog and send them the link.
