Now in its 41st year, observance of National Handwriting Day has been recognized by the US Congress. Our American "National Handwriting Day" has grown to "International Handwriting Week" celebrated by Mexico, Canada, Brazil, Argentina, Chili, Great Britain, Belgium, Netherlands, Nigeria, South Africa, Israel, India, Malaysia, Philippines, and other areas around our globe. The value of the neurological and kinetic process of "writing", especially in cursive, astounding! States are creating legislation and school districts are re-introducing Cursive to the curriculum!

Having a good handwriting is not that important, at least not to me. I mean, think about doctors, they do not have the prettiest handwriting, but they still do their job. Well, there are still some jobs that require a neat handwriting, but they are not that popular. If you are someone who takes a lot of importance to handwriting, then that is okay too. Personally, I could not care less about my handwriting, but that is just how I feel.
