Please Write: Finding Joy and Meaning in the Soulful Art of Handwritten Letters by Lynne Kolze
A book that discusses the joy of the handwritten letter; an art of correspondence and connection that should endure into the future

Realized it's been awhile since I've done a gratitude post. They really help me focus on finding good things especially when it seems like everything is going not so great. It's not about toxic positivity but just realizing that there is always something good happening even if it's tiny. Really helps with my overall anxiety levels and they've been out of control lately.
Feeling the weight lift right off me, and my resting heart rate drop three points, after a conversation with the Eldest Spawn. What could have been really difficult turned out really beautiful.
Playing Minecraft with the TACO for the first time in awhile. Their building skills have just exploded. So beautiful and creative.
Typing up a letter to my grandma then handwriting it. I really like handwriting letters but find it frustrating because I end up writing the letter over and over trying to get the thoughts out in a pleasant manner. Realized that I can type up the letter first which is much less frustrating. Such a weird thing to stumble on but at least I found a workaround for my weird self.

Cursive Letters [Explained]
Transcript
[A graph with 10 ticks on both the X and Y axes. The graph contains cursive uppercase and lowercase Latin letters. X axis is labeled "Looks cool" with an arrow pointing right and Y axis is labeled "Easy to tell what letter it's supposed to be" with an arrow pointing upward. From top to bottom, left to right, the letters are: C, B, P, K, d, X, R; M, N, c, O, x, t, y, L; D, W, a, Y, o, i; H; A, b, j; p, h; w, Q; m, u, k, g; E, I, l, q; f, J; U, V, T, e; n; v, F; G; r, S, s, z, Z.]
[The alt-text is written in cursive characters.]
Alt-Text: I think capital L is probably the most fun to write, though lowercase q is also a strong contender.
