With all the means of communicating today, seems the art of handwriting will soon disappear. Most of our schools no longer teach cursive. The reason: of what use is cursive in the digital world in which our children operate?
There are several reasons that handwriting is becoming a dinosaur.
- Texting
- Smart phones
- Computers
- Tablets
- Fountain pens with the capabilities of sending emails

With all these technological advancements, what do I need with a fountain pen?
Perhaps the number one reason for continuing handwriting could be the love of the art. I have never captured the fine art of calligraphy. My handwriting is atrocious at best; however, I still write all my first drafts with a fountain pen.
I read only a few days ago that teens have begun to hand write notes again. The reason is that the handwritten note is more personal. So maybe handwriting will not die completely.
What do you think? Is handwriting worth keeping alive?
