Feeling prosaic. If David Foster Wallace were alive, or I was his reincarnation, I reckon, this is how I’ll pen down an essay about my experience over last two posts,

The Perils of the Texting Quagmire: A Cautionary Tale

In the digital age, the art of conversation has undergone a curious transformation. Gone are the days of smoke signals and carrier pigeons, and in their place, we have the instantaneous magic of texting. But beware, dear reader, for this sorcery comes with its own set of traps.

Imagine embarking on a quest to find a kindred spirit in the vast kingdom of r/r4rindia. You craft your message with the care of a master wordsmith, and lo! You receive a response. The excitement is palpable; the connection, instantaneous. Back and forth the messages fly, with the speed and grace of a well-played game of ping pong.

But as the sun sets and rises, a pattern emerges. The once lively exchange begins to wane. Replies become as rare as a unicorn sighting. The dreaded 'texting zone' has claimed another victim. This is no mere friend zone; this is where potential connections come to wither like unwatered houseplants.

You see, in this zone, conversations are like fireworks that fizzle out too soon, leaving nothing but smoke and a faint smell of sulphur. The initial spark is lost in a maze of 'LOLs' and 'haha's, and the promise of a genuine human connection is buried under an avalanche of emojis.

So, what's a soul to do when they yearn for more than just digital whispers? When the heart longs for the warmth of a voice that can't be conveyed in pixels? It's simple: one must seek out the ancient ritual of auditory discourse. A method so powerful, it can cut through the noise and revive a dying conversation with the mere sound of a 'hello'.

In this quest for auditory companionship, one must be subtle. It's not about blatantly asking for a voice chat; it's about creating a space where the idea of sharing stories, laughter, and perhaps a serenade or two feels as natural as breathing.

So, if you find yourself nodding along, understanding the plight of many a text-weary traveler, then perhaps it's time we embark on a different kind of journey. One where the sound of a voice can turn the texting quagmire into a distant memory, and where the conversation flows like a mighty river, unimpeded and full of life.

And who knows? In this world of sound and resonance, you might just find what you're looking for.
