"Texting -VS-Talking on the phone"

Hello fellow blogger's and blogettes. I thought to myself, why is that we tune out talking? I know that there are only 24 hours in a day. I can understand "busy schedules" and "communicating" when you are on the go. However, I think that we are loosing the essence of "hearing the voice". I don't mind texting when it is necessary, but I do enjoy hearing the voice behind the name of whomever I am talking to. I believe that some things should be "said" and "not text" to one another. For example, If I speak to my significant other, I would rather hear "I love you" then having it text to me every day. I understand if it's once in a while because life gets "busy". To hear it, feels so much more "vibrant" and "assuring". It shows you that the person took time out of their day to show you that they do care about you and not just write you off as; ok, it's done, I checked it off of my day, "all done". As a "texter", I do it too, but I believe that it should not be done all the time. To me, now at days, it is unfortunate because we text our emotions away,no more"voice to voice" contact. Technology is "growing" and "evolving" at a rapid rate,to the point where everything becomes"digital". The essence of that "one on one" contact is becoming less frequent. If you notice, in China they make live robots for people who want satisfaction in an intimate way. Bizzare, aint it? That's what I was thinking. When it comes to certain things, I think technology "should not" be applied to every grand moment of your life. I don't understand how some people can saty on the internet for hours and spend no time doing much of anything else, because everything is "on-line". There was a time when you can "write a letter" or send a card to someone and have something to look forward to instead of sending an email. I miss those days where you could expect a letter in the email from someone close to you or a long time friend you haven't seen in a while. I want to live and make life more efficient, but not to the point where I let everything in my life be about"the digital scene". I enjoy laughing, talking on the phone, going out to eat with family and friends, and cooking to prepare for that family gathering. That is something that computers "can't do" or a phone can "never replace". Computers can't take the place of people, they can only do what they are programmed to do. When I am sad and I need a hug, I can't go online and get a hug. I need a person who "sleeps", "breathes", and "cry" like I do. That's why it is so important to make time for those kinds of moments. In this day and age, so many people seem to be "passing away"so quickly. We need to take advantage of our time we have "together". You never know when someone you love will pass away ,God for bid, so, please do me a favor fellow blogger's and blogette's. Don't wait until someone you love passes away to say "I love you", or say; "I wish I could have spent more time with them", because by that time, it's- "too late" and they won't  be able to "hear"- you. Please enjoy life and spend each moment you get here on earth when the opportunity arises and you have time, spend it with your loved ones. It doesn't matter if they are friends or your family. Try to treasure each moment and don't let it pass you by. Thank you all fellow blogger's for taking time out of your busy day to read my blog. I hope you were inspired to take time once in a while to enjoy life with your loved one's.* Live, laugh, love and give a little more each day, and the outcome will be a more happier life. Godbless you all.*:)
