Isn't technology amazing?!
Just the pure fact that we can turn on a phone almost anywhere in the world and talk to somebody else almost anywhere else in the world. I also love emails!! I can write a message and instantaneously anything I want is thousands of miles away.
I can't imagine living when the fastest way to send a message was to give it to a boy who would take a long journey on horse to the nearest docks, then give it to a post person and wait probably months for it to get across the ocean and who knows how long until it could get to the person needed, back then they thought that was amazing probably. Even our modern postal service is so much faster and more reliable than about 95% of history. I love that all I have to do is put a couple stickers on an envelope and it's basically set and the rest is taken care of.
Hopefully I can remember that next time I don't have service and have to wait like five minutes to send a text message.
