Change
Ah, here it is… another year. The fading of the old and the beginning of new. As much as I love the innovative things that occur in this world as time goes by, I cannot help but do a complete 180 and think about what was. And the first thing that struck my mind as I opened gmail was how I missed writing a letter. No, not an email.
But a letter, with the freshly scented paper, an envelope, and a stamp.
and with that thought, another one followed… and another…
I thought of how I missed sitting in front of those huge boxed computers, instead of the sleek new ones with flat screens.
I miss listening to the steady buzz of a cassette rewinding.
I miss using a floppy disk to save my work, instead of a flash drive.
I miss watching television, considering all the shows I watch these days are available online.
I miss manually opening my car door and fumbling with the keys, now that they open with a simple click.
I miss using the phones that actually have a cord attached to them and forced me to stay in one place.
I miss the anticipation of developing pictures from a camera film, instead of having them available immediately through a digital camera.
It never fails to amaze me to see how things have changed in just a span of ten years. And i'm pretty sure this feeling will never cease to exist, considering that more changes are underway.
So here's to yet another new year! and more change!
