Writing is SO Important

Where would we ever be if every person in the world stopped writing? I'm thinking choas, explosions, total mass panic because nobody knows what happened!!

People tend to take advantage of written works, and most don't even know they do it. No writing means no newspapers, no magazines, no Facebook, no Twitter, and no internet. How could anyone ever live in such horrible conditions? Nobody could. We rely on writing so much now, eliminating it is not an option.

Yes, you could make a video. But where would you put it? The internet is gone. TV? Take out all written words...and maybe it's possible. However, buying air time would be expensive and require contracts. Verbal words aren't as trustworthy. People need the evidence recorded. This way would get over complex and not worth the trouble.

What about communicating directly? This solution definitely would work if you had time on your hands as well. Let's face it we need writing and writers (you know the ones who do the writing?) or else getting through one day is not possible. At ALL.

I'm not telling you to go out and praise the first journalist you see (you can if you want but that is your choice). I just want you to realize that the smallest bit of information in a newspaper or magazine or on the internet most likely took a lot of work to get. Don't grovel. Just exhibit some patience and you will be rewarded. Words can't travel like speeding bullets.
