Blog 10: Communication: Before and Today (One-side-at-a-time)

Outline:

Before:

1. Apology (sensitive; tact; compassionate)

2. Values (full of sense)

3. Information (concise)

4. I love you (not a text template)

Today:

1. Apology (inadequate)

2. Values (senseless)

3. Information (shortcut)

4. I love you (text template)

Nowadays, communication has been out from its real meaning. Before, saying an apology had been very sensitive, intact and compassionate. Someone to say an apology has to really meet the person whom he/she had sinned. There he/she explains more about the mistakes done and getting a greater possibility of being forgiven. Also, values and feelings are full of sense. When you say some things to someone, it’s very pleasing, more convincing and appealing. Another is that, information before is concise. It is accurate and that it is taken time to be delivered; by then, it is being understood more by most of the people since it is very detailed. Saying “I Love You” has never been easy. It takes time for a person to confess and say to the other whom his/her heart’s beating for that he/she’s in love. However, things have changed. Today, saying an apology is inadequate. Through texting, chatting and other means of communication technologies, saying sorry is done by just one click. Another is that, values have been senseless; well, maybe having sense but it’s just in the “office”. Everything that we wanted to say, do and express is all by shortcuts; even the spelling. Speaking of shortcuts, information is so. Nowadays, information is just very short that it makes the people’s thinking hanging. Lastly, saying the most important and difficult words has been easy. It’s sent, not relayed. And why in a world would someone put that on text templates?
