Today's tantrum is very personal, it is about Manners. Yes, that that only the 'old people have'! I know that WE have come a long way from the time of 'pen and ink' style of writing, but I am not sure why we have lost our manners too. With all this great new technology you would think it would be easier to say THANK YOU or PLEASE. Instead I find that many people I run into don't even remember what those words are for.

I try very hard to respond to all my emails, all my comments and all those who 'favorite' me. I know that with all the HOPS I do I also find people who just don't know how/what to do when someone is polite and actually says thank you.

I still write letters - YES, real one's with a pen and paper. I still send birthday cards - YES, in the mail. I still find that I am excited when I get a card or note from a friend. So why would I stop? Has the OMG and TTYL world trained us so well that we forgot the TY and Welcome (I don't even know if there is one for welcome). Trust me, I TEXT, EMAIL, and MESSAGE, right along with the best of them. But I also say THANK YOU and I also respond when I am asked a question - even if it is via email!

What do you think? Do you still use manners? Do you find that others do too? If you don't, maybe we should start an OCCUPY movement to bring the words, THANK YOU, PLEASE and YOU ARE WELCOME back into our worlds..... I think it would make us happier!
