Coming back to traditional writing


Nowadays it is difficult to imagine functioning of our life without technological devices, especially the smartphones with its all fancy applications, that undeniably facilitate our life. Thus, we can surely say that, in some cases, these applications make the alternative to paper books or notebooks. We can notice, however, some changes in people's habits concerning using smartphones, who tend to resign, for exemple, from using their 'notebook' application in favour of the traditional methods of writing by using a pen and paper. The reasons that push them towards this anti-smartphone direction is mainly the feeling of being overwhelmed and addicted by the technology but also they often find this reach offer of technological tools unsatisfactory by its content. That is why they are starting to appreciate more the simplicity and flexibility of this simple pen and paper that give them some kind of freedom as it eliminates the fear of the supplies in our battery while making notes or losing files. It also allows them to dissociate from the virtual world, to doodle or to make a quick drawing what would be a bit difficult with your smartphone. Manual writing, in contrast to the smartphone apps, influences also positively our brain by stimulating it what in consequence developps our ability to absorb the written information better. The process of manual creation gives us also a lot of satisfaction as its results are more touchable, thus, more encouraging but also it provides for us this simple fun of getting your hands dirty :)
