As a child ，Fischer loved going to the beach and riding bikes along the coastline with his
father，Karl Fischer.So when he lost his dad to pancreatic cancer，he turned to the healing power
of the ocean.
At the start of this year，Fischer wrote his father’s name on his surfboard and took it out to
sea in Newport ，Rhode Island.His father’s name shone in the sun on what felt like a shared
adventure.Inspired，Fischer made a video and posted it on social media the same day.“If you love
the ocean ，or you know someone who loves the ocean ，or maybe you lost someone who just
loved being outdoors... ，you can comment on this video with their name and a bit of their
story ，and I’ll put their name on my board here ，just like I’ve done with my father’s
name，” he said in the video.“And I’ll take them out in the ocean for you.”
Names poured in from thousands of strangers grieving(悲伤) the loss of loved ones.And with
that ，the One Last Wave Project was born ，the aim of which was to exchange stories with a
community of people going through the same pain.They were essentially healing together.About
two months later ，Fischer had received over 5,000 names and written most of them on two
surfboards.The first two surfboards ran out of space—he’s working on getting more.He wrote the
names in neat letters on the surfboard and put a clear acrylic( 丙 烯 酸 ) coat over them so they
didn’t wash off.
Though a lot of people have been struggling with grief in the pandemic，Fischer was amazed
by the responses that have poured in.“If I am able to help one person or one person shares their
name，that is enough for me ，” he said.“But I am blown away—by not just the number of
people sharing，but the depth of stories and love that they are sharing.” And he plans to take his
project around the world and connect with even more people—through shared grief and the power
of the ocean.

When did you last write a letter ？Properly write one—by hand？In a digital world，where
sending a text or email is far more convenient than using snail mail ，is the writing on the wall for
traditional pen and paper ？Well ，some people claim that writing still has many benefits ，so
maybe it’s not time to ditch your ballpoint(圆珠笔) or fountain pen(钢笔) yet.
These days，when people request things in writing ，a typed，electronic document will be
accepted.Doing this on a computer means it could be saved ，edited ，copied and sent via
email.But crafting a handwritten document is unique：It requires planning and thought，and，as
well as practising your handwriting，it helps you to remember spelling and punctuation.
Some experts believe your brain benefits from using old-fashioned pen and paper.This is
particularly relevant for students，where typing notes into a laptop is thought to lack the “tactile
feedback( 触觉反馈)” to the brain that contacts between pen and paper does.BBC Worklife
website quotes Hetty Roessingh from the University of Calgary ，who says that taking notes by
hand involves cognitive(认知的) engagement in summarizing ，adapting，organizing，concept
and vocabulary mapping.Others agree that handwriting may boost fine motor skills in your hands
and fingers.
There are everyday benefits to using pen and paper too.Scribbling(涂鸦) notes，shopping lists
or messages on the back of an envelope can still be useful ，quick and portable.But putting pen to
paper in a letter to a friend or loved one can probably have the most impact.Pen pal writer
Katherine Moller told the BBC：“In a world where it is so easy to hop online to email or to send
