Texting to the rescue

Smartphones have come to my rescue. I am not an introvert but I can't talk the way I type. Basically, I am more comfortable and better in texting then having a face to face communication. Most of you might be relating to this. Who don't relate to this are our parents or most of their generation. The modern mode of communication has evolved from its predecessor i.e. lingual communication. Texting is not a straight conversion on lingual language. We don't write like we speak and we don't speak like we write. That's why it is more comfortable. This basic evolution is missed by my parents. They generally text in the exact same way they would speak, which sometimes make it completely awkward and frustrating for them. But, we have learned it through practice. They will also. What do you think?

Are you kidding me? 

I think, we are taking the sense of word 'maturity' in a wrong way. Someone who doesn't panic, doesn't get excited at every little thing, don't joke around in serious situation, can handle pressure, etc. are some of our assumed qualities of mature behavior. On the other hand, opposite behavior is considered childish or immature. However, in modern world the qualities that we consider as mature are mostly because of stress and problems going on in one's life. Whereas, people with kiddish behavior feel to be happier than the so called 'Mature' ones.  So you want to be mature or happy?
