SMSin

They say, it doesn’t make sense to pick up a pen to write when you haven’t yet stood up to live, but what to do… there are so many things to be told hehe… don’t worry… just njoy readin…

They say text messaging or smsing ruins our language… but hey hold your horses. First, let’s answer a few questions before we go into The-Argument.

How did humans first communicate?? Signals, for screaming out loud!! Then the next question… How did they communicate when they weren’t face to face? With the help of figures and pictures. (Well it seems this sentence is not grammatically correct as per MS-Word – but it seems you understood it pretty well – so I care a damn!!). Then the language was brought into picture in order to allow people to communicate with utmost ease.

Well now comes the million dollar question… Does smsing ruin our language? Well for starters… if language wasn’t meant to simplify our lives, why was it invented? Ok, here I go breaking one more foremost rule in the art of conversation… that of answering a question with another question. In our defense, smsing improves communication and that I believe is the main aim of a language. Therefore, as long as we have the right aim and the right direction, we dnt hv to wrry!! So people njoy smsin… hehe!
