    A letter I have received last summer in my entire life is from my fiancée. It was a love letter. I always have complained to him about not having a love story which received letters and sending letters. It's got kind of old school drama kind of thing in my life. So, I don't know what made him motivated but last summer he took a pen, he wrote a letter, he posted it to me and I received it with a big surprise and I felt really good and really special to receive a letter from him. That letter didn't have much of information but it was just a love letter who is very fond of me. He wrote, I am good, how are you and how is your health? In addition, he mentioned that I am his special person and he feels so lucky to have me in his life. There are not much above words he used or there is no poetry going on in the letter but it's really special to my heart. In addition, he also added little drawings and like for example, he drew a picture of me and him hugging together, sitting in a park. So, I really love that letter for those little cute additions. On one hand, my eyes are filled with tears. On other hand, I was so eager to read the letter and finish what he has written. After completing the letter, I was so immensely joy. My heart is fulfilled and I immediately took a pen and a letter to write him back. So, that was the letter I have received and it's so special to me because it's from the special person in my entire life.

    A letter I have received in my life was from my father. He wrote the letter to me when I was studying in 9th standard. He sent the letter to me when he was abroad. It was a simple letter with very few details regarding my studies and how to focus on my studies. It also included certain instructions about how to improve my life and he also suggested some books to read. Even though the letter was small and its content was very little, I felt very happy about receiving a letter on my own. In fact, it was the first letter I received in my name. So I felt very happy and I showed the letter to everyone including my family members and friends. Then I wrote a reply letter to the letter I received and I sent it to my dad through a family friend who went abroad. When my dad received the letter, he was also very excited about it and he expressed how much he felt happy when he received the letter.

    During my school time, a girl wrote a letter to me. You could say it was a love letter. She left that letter on my personal locker. Everyday I used to open my locker and once I opened that locker, I found that letter. Once I opened that letter, she first wrote her name like XYZ. She wrote that how obsessed she was with me. Whenever she used to look at me, she used to feel like I was the one she was always looking for. I was the one who she was going to marry and all that. It was not something which I loved. I was really getting chills down my spine because it was not something which I expected on daily basis. It was also not something how I felt about that girl. I think it was not appropriate for her to write that letter to me. It was not something which I loved. It was the only letter which I have ever received in my life. I have a very clear memory of it. I have created a core memory out of it because it was the one and only letter which I have ever received.

There's never a day that I miss wearing it. She along with, she also wrote a lot of memories of us being together, us bunking classes, eating our lunch together in the lunch break in school and all the trips we have went to in our school time and her last day in India. That was the day like we both cried a lot. We knew that we'll be missing each other a lot in the next years and I haven't met her since. I really want to meet her very soon and hug her very tightly and tell her that I missed her a lot.

    I received many letters in my life but this was very special letter for me because my uncle sent me this letter when I was a child. My age was just around 7 years. My uncle sent me letter in pink envelope. It was a very beautiful color and decoration of this envelope is amazing. And this was my birthday. This was sent on my birthday. They sent me lots of wishes and it was such an important letter for me because my uncle is far from us. They are out of station with their family. So they don't come on my birthday. So they sent me a letter and some gifts for me and I really feel good. This feeling is different in my life because I never ever thought my uncle sent me this kind of gifts and letter. In this letter, uncle writes some quotes for me. This is near to my heart. His family was such a good family. When I read this letter, tears come from my eyes. It's really near in my heart. I never ever forget this letter in my whole life. I really wish my uncle is where they are.

    I think that letter is a great form to transfer your emotions to one another because in the era of today when we have discovered smartphones and smart devices where we can communicate to each other but the feeling of handwriting a letter to someone you love is a great thing and by letter we can display many kind of emotions and it can be formal and non-formal and I have received recently one letter which I've received from my friend who is currently my long-distance friend and she lives far away from me. We have a distance of countries. I live in India and she lives in Australia and she has been there for two years now and she has been studying there. She has been doing graduation there and she's going to be graduated after a few months and after graduation she has decided to get married and she has sent me the letter regarding the same and I was extremely happy to hear about her experience and I've been so busy after then preparing for her wedding as I've been a great part in her relationship as we were together since school so I've seen her love story to be emerged from a bud to a flower so yeah I'm really really interested and I've decided to write back her a letter to describe my emotions that what I've felt I've been extremely extremely immensely happy and I think so that we should write each other's letter more often so we can describe our feelings to each other maybe we'll get the time to write it.

    In my entire life, nobody can send me a letter for personally me because I do not have so much contact around us so that's why I have not received any kind of letter. I have never received a letter in my life because I don't have so much contact around us and I don't like to talk to people too much that's why I don't receive a letter in my life and I don't want to make friends.

    I have not received many letters in my life but one of the letters which holds a special place in my heart is the letter which was given by my younger brother when I was in college. He wrote me a letter saying or just pleading me to come back home in vacations as I wasn't able to go home for few months due to my college exams and events and there was a festival coming up soon and we used to enjoy the festival together a lot so my brother just wrote me a letter saying that please sister can you just come to this festival, we will enjoy like old times, I know you have a lot of college work to do and assignments to complete but can you just make time for 3 to 4 days and just come visit us, we will have a great time and just stay with me and I was so happy when I received that letter that I booked the flight the next day and went to my home and I really enjoyed that vacation as much I enjoyed reading that letter.

    The interesting letter which I have ever received in my life was from my uncle, who had gone to America in 2006 for his master's education. And after one month, we received a letter from him which was saying that he had made it to America safely and securely. Though he had some problems at the airport with baggage, but at the end he found his bag and all his stuff was pretty safe. And after that he talked about the weather in America, that at that time it was very cold because it was Christmas time. And he also talked about the food which was served in American restaurants. Mostly the food was non-vegetarian, but we are strictly prohibited from eating non-vegetarian food. He also told me that he was missing all of us, and in that letter he has mentioned each and every single name of our family member. And I was very happy and there were tears in my eyes at that time. He also motivated us for achieving our dream and also guided us that if anybody wants to come to America, then they may write a letter to him and he will give all the information which somebody wants by writing the letter.
