With this instant access to things we expect things to be fast and our ability to be
patient has decreased. When we contact someone we expect to be able to get a
hold of them and when we cannot after trying many forms of contact such as,
calling, texting, emailing, facebooking, we quickly move on to a new task while
waiting to hear back from that person. We can be chatting with someone via
text, while emailing someone while being on hold with our hands free device for
our phone. This has made the new norm of communicating brief and to the point.
We use less words and much less face to face time resulting in a lack of
understanding one another. As a result there is allot more isolation and less
community outreach. When we communicate via texting we are missing body
language and voice changes as well as the human connection that happens when we
are face to face. We no longer value talking face to face with people. It is
normal to not talk to someone face to face all day.
