In today's fast-moving world, we no longer have to wait to communicate with each other. It is almost an invasion of our privacy to carry around a cell phone which gives anyone with our number access to us. We are expected to have cell phones and to keep these devices on us at all times. This takes away our need for patience. We should be able to get ahold of anyone whose cell phone number we have in our phone. Which is electronically kept, so that we don't even have to remember the number. In addition to our cell phones chiseling-away at our capacity for patience, Google makes it so that we don't even have to wait to get information. We can instantly get what we want and where we want to be on the internet. We even have mobile devices that can access the internet anywhere we happen to be! Gimme gimme gimme! And if you don't get it for me, I have google :)... that is, information, of course, we still haven't figured out how to instantaneous transport material goods right when we want them...but in due time, friends.
I agree completely. I remember the day when I knew everyones number or talking to them instead of sending words through space or even ringing someones doorbell when I went to their house. We need to go back to the simpler times of communicating that didn't create paranoia of rejection if we can't reach a person within five minutes. As soon as I get a place I can call mine, I'm getting a lan line or John's Phone.
