when words are pitifully assassinated!

Finally, we are in the age where the choice of words is replaced by choice of symbols and smileys. We don’t find the necessity to respect each other with words and with proper, apt communication. The wise king Solomon in the book of proverbs beautifully portrays the art of communication this way - “A word aptly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.”. Can you for a moment imagine the decorum he paints when he talks about the choice of words spoken aptly? Apples of gold in silver plate - That is so impressive.

Let me take you to the creation story. You will hear the creation story in various versions. The popular ones are Darwin's theory, Big Bang theory and the mythologies. All fields of science, archaeology, quantum physics and other important branches of study have made enough research and found to be compatible with the story of the Bible which says, God created the heaven and the earth by His wisdom, power and most importantly with His words, and therefore in the Bible it says, “In the beginning was the word, the word was with God and the word was God.”.

Sadly, in our times, we devalue words with hideous symbols and smileys. You write a big paragraph respecting the person and extending your support and adding value to the task and then you get a ‘thumps up’ or ‘clap symbol’, etc. Do people even think that it dishonors the art of communication and diminishes the courtesy code? People have developed the technique to evade people with such symbols and smileys. Moreover, who cares what others think about them. All they assume about is their existence on this earth by some means and the nearest philosophy they want to identify themselves with is, “survival of the fittest.”.

There is a dire need to once again teach adults the civility code, like using ‘thank you’, ‘sorry’, etc. Let us learn to communicate with respect and use words as an art of communication. Mind, the words themselves have not died whereas it is our values, ethics and morality that are assassinated each day in our hands.
