After nearly 3 months of no text messaging, I’m back on the texting train or perhaps I should say I’ve fallen off the wagon. I’m using again, text messages that is. Regardless, I’ve again embraced the convenience of a quick text to get an address of a restaurant or to confirm plans with friends.
I must admit, I still prefer phone calls. I enjoy hearing the voice of the person on the other end, their inflection and tone, and their laughter. You certainly can’t get that with a text message. In fact you’re more likely to misinterpret the message or miss it’s meaning completely.
