Topic: Email or postal mail?

Email (Electronic mail) is a method of exchanging digital messages, designed primarily for human use via networked communication technology that developed along with the evolution of the Internet.
Postal mail (also called mail, or post) is a method for transmitting information and tangible objects, wherein written documents, typically enclosed in envelopes and also small packages are delivered to destinations around the world. Anything sent through the postal system is called postal mail or post.

It is said that email is replacing postal mail and becomes indispensable in the modern world today because it is cheap, fast, downloadable and instantly accessible. Every company has a website, friends use emails to keep in touch, and each high school student will soon receive their own email account from the school.
However, for those who are in their fifties or older, they prefer postal mail to email because of the following reasons:

• Postal mail is perceived as being more convenient to read at leisure, as well as being less high-pressured than email.


• Receiving a postal mail is like receiving a gift. It's real and often more personal than email. It gives them a warmer and better feeling to hold the handwritten letter in their hands and read the lines over and over again, which a printed email doesn’t have.


• They think that though email is faster and more practical for daily correspondence, there is an incomparable sense of joy and wonder when you receive something that has touched human hands. So, they like to treasure and cherish each letter they have received through life and would often look at them and love to get the “energies” contained in each letter or remember the event that they were exchanged at.
