Communication: The Next Dinosaur

We do not live in our parents world. While technology has made living easier, it seems to have made life more shallow.

Communication has taken on a new, almost distant form. People misread or misplace emails. They text instead of talk. And almost everyone becomes a stalker in one form or another.

We live in a modern world, but are we really living? People talk, but do they communicate?

Shy people of yesterday had to out grow their fears in order to survive and get ahead in the world. Shy people of today often hide behind their computer and never learn proper social skills.

If this continues, just think of the obstacles that will never be overcome. Think of the people that we will never meet or things that will never be invented, discovered or created. All because of good old-fashion communication - or lack of.
