Blog 10: Communication Through the Years

I just realized that communication now had gone far away from before. Now, with the advancement of technology such as the e-mailing, chatting and using of cell phone, I could not easily express my feelings. Like for example, if I did something wrong then I wanted to apologize by using the cell phone or computer, my apology did not show any sincerity. Next, modern communication was effortless. It was only one text away if I needed to say something to a person. Lastly, it was easy to put in words what I wanted to say. It was because there was nothing to be ashamed for I was not talking personally, and one thing; I might simply lie and say that I was not the one who chatted with someone. Unlike before, I could convey my feelings easily. It might be through writing, which I could put in word my sentiments, or through speaking personally, which I could say my sentiments personally. The communication needed more efforts. It was true since if I would write, I had to make draft and I must rewrite until I would have a clean writing. If I personally talk, I needed to travel or walk if the person I wanted to talk was not beside me. Then, it took courage. Since in writing and saying, it was hard to write or say what I really felt especially if it was from my heart because it was so shameful. With these comparisons, I could say that the communication before was better since it made people understood what I really wanted to say. The communication before might as well lessened the misinterpretation in our community.
