Communication

Okay most of know that communication can be very easy and also very hard.  Most of us communicate with text messaging and with that comes along all of the abbreviations we made to make it that much faster.  For me I got all caught up in the abbreviations and when I would type up papers I caught myself using my so called "text" language.  Now I decided to actually spell out all my words when texting.  For me I believe that face to face communication is the best way to get a message cross, especially if it's important.  At least for me I can better understand someone better when I am talking to them face to face and I can read their emotions.  Emails can be effective, but most people don't check their email every minute of the day like they do their phone.  When I look around there are kids that are 8 years old carrying around newer cell phones than I have.  With this you have people getting so used to communicating over phone that when they grow up they aren't used to talking to someone face to face.  This makes applying for jobs and interviews extremely hard for people.  If you have something important to say it should be face to face.  Other than that to me it seems just like you are scared to see the persons reactions, plus with emails and texts you can have a long time to think about the words you need to say.  Communication is the key to success.  Without it there is no way to get anybody's point across.
