E-MAILS--The Destroyers



    I used  to love them, now I hate them.  E-mails! 
First of all, when someone is on the computer they have so  many things to do, that for most, emails are  a big  pain.  Conversing through emails  is impossible.  Depending on the mood of the recipient, it  may be  interpreted  wrongly and often is.  No one wants to hear about the 
"drama" in another's  life. It is also a document that can be  saved  forever, printed out, and sent to others in a split second.  I wonder if an eCard has ever been received without someone thinking, "how cheap can they get?"   I think emails are destroying society.  We are now in too much of a hurry to be considerate of others.  Cell phones, text messages, all electronic means of communication are sending millions of messages  every minute  all around the  world.   It is worse than empty silence by far.   It is a mix of soup that has no flavor.  It is running in place and getting nowhere. People are upset if they get too many or too few.  Addicting to some.
Death knell for others.  Who needs the stress? E-mails should have a return to sender, unopened like snail mail.  Then no one would make fools of themselves by irritating others.   You can delete  them but it is not the same.  It isn't even fair to those waiting for an answer.
If you have  a need to write your problems  down, just make up a name and write to him or her in a word program. 
I promise, they will not take offense, get attitudes, get angry, or any of the downside reactions that some emails cause.  
The electronic age has us spinning into  oblivion.  I am getting out while I can.  If you email  me about this  post, watch for a return to sender in your box.
