Letters are eternal memories. I still have a box full of letters from my past. Sometimes I read it and find how things were different then. All the things we friends used to share and talk about seem so far and out now. But to keep love letters from an ex boyfriend is a very different thing. I don’t think keeping old love letters is a healthy habit. It tells you only about what you felt at a particular period of time about a particular person. And now as time has moved forward, you should move forward. Old love letters are pegs on the memory door which don’t allow us to close it, keeping it unhealthily open.

I am not saying that you should not have good old memories, for they make us feel alive and human. But keep them in your memories only, not in print. That way, you can feel them more sweeter.
