Blogs are alright in my opinion for the quick fix of home. The best medicine and morale booster though is a letter. The milblogs greatest accomplishment is definitely the exposure to the war. The current regulation is to allow blogging from what I’ve heard though it may soon be regulated. Good Luck with that.

I like this statement.

Comparing blogs and hand writing, I think handwritten letters takes much more effort and thought. With blogs, you can always delete and rarely do we put words that have a lot of thought into them. Blogs ar e a tool for us to communicate to others. We don’t think hard about what we write nor do we take the time to think about its effects. Handwritten letters, now that is a different story. Have you ever written a letter to a friend and sent an email to a friend? Which one required you to put more thought, of course the handwritten one because it is irritating when you are erasing and crunching up papers because you have used the wrong verb or the wrong sentence structure.

Now why do I say handwritten letters are more difficult. I have experienced it myself. I write a lot. The words that I use and the idea that I present will probably never be in a blog because they are deep and meaningful. There’s something about using your hands and thoughts at the same time that somehow makes you put more effort than just typing.

Point of the writing, when I write a blog, they are too superficial. Hence, they will not be able to replace handwritten letters.
