RE: What’s Happened to Our Communication?

Omg, Dad rang three times the other day and I had the phone on silent. He chastised me and I got annoyed. Dad, I said, why don't you text like a normal person? 😜🤔🤣😕
Don't worry, I'm picking up the phone to call him now 🤣
I think it's because we are all just darn busy! A phonecall takes an emotional investment, longer than a text, and you have to hope they aren't busy on the other end. Dad rings and expects me to be available, but he's retired and I'm working and doing a hundred projects. But when he dies, man I'm going to miss those calls.
I even won't delete his voicemails, just in case.

Hahaha oh my goodness I bet as you were reading this post you giggled. Ah, he got annoyed with you. My mom gets frustrated with me if I don't call her back after 3 voicemails 😬😄.
This is so true, it takes a lot more effort than a text message.
I think it has a lot to do with generations too. The older generations are more irritated with the technology advancements and would rather keep it old school. With people being so much more busy now it’s hard to really take the time to answer calls. I know that we won’t be able to answer every time we get one but we can try a bit harder to make more time when we can. Or we can be the ones calling when we do have a few extra minutes to spare.
I’m glad you called your dad 😊. You do that too? I have several voice messages saved from my parents 🥰.
I do. I cant imagine the sound of his voice disappearing from the world..
I know what you mean. I feel the same way about my parents. 🥹🥰
