From Letters to Texting
The evolution of communication has seen a remarkable transformation from traditional letter writing to the instantaneous nature of texting. In the early days, letters served as the primary means of long-distance communication, requiring time, effort, and a degree of formality that defined interpersonal relationships. The process of composing a letter involved careful consideration of language, structure, and emotional tone, reflecting the gravity of conveying thoughts and feelings through written word. This method fostered a sense of anticipation; recipients often awaited responses, creating a rhythm in communication that is rarely found in today's digital interactions.
