There was a time when the letter would take days to reach the receiver <br />And there was always the tension that the letter would reach the destination never. <br /> <br />It was a time consuming communication method, and very uncertain as well <br />Whether the letter would reach in time was something nobody could tell. <br /> <br />Above all, writing a letter by hand was always a tiring process <br />Making people around the world to write letters less and less. <br /> <br />Then we witnessed your emergence, something that caused a revolution in the way we exchange letter <br />You provided an option that is not only easier, but in every sense it is so better. <br /> <br />No more a painful writing on the paper, with a pen that my tired fingers find to be a burden <br />No more a scenario where I will find letter writing to be worse than falling into a drain. <br /> <br />Now we just access our email account, and our fingers start playing on the keyboard <br />And in no time we write a long mail, without feeling any load. <br /> <br />And the distance does not matter, even if I send the mail to somebody thousand miles away <br />It will always take only few seconds to cover the entire way. <br /> <br />No scenario for pasting stamps, or putting the letter into envelope <br />Just to type and click “Send”, and the mail will reach anywhere in the globe. <br /> <br />And yes, no need to send separate mails to separate people when the message is the same <br />I just need to “CC” the mail to everybody. So what else do I have to blame? <br /> <br />Our fast life had made letter writing a dying art, and by this time it would have died <br />But it did not happen, as you appeared as our guide. <br /> <br />You ensured that we are able to keep touch with one another, and our relationships remain alive <br />Hats off to you, Mr. E-mail, you are really an asset of the modern human life.<br /><br />Raja Basu<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/hats-off-to-you-mr-e-mail/
