But you know, our eyes can be trained to overlook the images, ignore the videos, or remain unbothered about the 'market mein naya aaya hai' jokes, but what is more precious is the banter that takes place amidst that. <br /><br />A family that used to meet at least twice in a year has grown apart as children grew up, and families dispersed by distances which seem not worthy enough to cross for a single day when everyone would be together. In such an arid world that we are ushering into, yes, I believe it is bringing families together. Phone calls have their place of one-to-one conversations, but you don't get to sit in a room full of people you call family and talk, and have a good time.<br /><br />That is what I think, even when I am no good while I am there :P<br />:)Blasphemous Aesthetehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16417596461540852006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8579671752707276248.post-14825646627821682902015-04-04T03:01:42.373-07:002015-04-04T03:01:42.373-07:00Nope :) AND not only because I am the only chap wh...Nope :) AND not only because I am the only chap who can snap the Empire State Building on a digital camera and make it look like a Cubist Painting :)C Sureshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07447144019185253116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8579671752707276248.post-20797673172740467142015-04-04T00:24:08.038-07:002015-04-04T00:24:08.038-07:00A fun read, Alka!

And next morning everything gets deleted after a cursory look at the stuff.

I believe in the tradition of calling and talking to my loved ones. It's good for planning meet ups or sharing instant pics. Mine is on mute too.

I read a joke that no one can walk with their heads held higher because of WhatsApp. I have very few people on WhatsApp and no one forwards very long jokes to me. :) I was in one group that had vela folks posting mile-long messages. I requested the admin to quit, and she was gracious about it. The assault on my senses ceased. I really hate people constantly engaged to their phones and laughing at random jokes. This was such a fun read.Rachnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02275266551382931603noreply@blogger.com
