We are living in the modern era. Nowadays technology has spread its legs in every nook and corner. In past time there were fewer means to communicate with each other such as face to face communication and write a letter. However, today due to the advancement of technology people have so many sources, for example, video call, text, email and so on. Some of the folks believe that because of technology there is a need to send any information through writing a letter. I agree with this statement to some extent and I will elaborate this in the following paragraphs.

First of all, modern communication sources are more convenient rather than we use before. It is quite easy to communicate with each other through technology because of new technology provide us some handy electronic gadgets which help us to convey our message in a few seconds. For instance, a mobile phone reduces the distance level between one country to others. With the use of it, individual easily connect with their relatives through video call who are living in some other state or nation. Apart from this, it is less time consuming because people do not need to wait 2to3 days for a reply. In other words, in the past time if a person writes a letter to someone to inform them then it takes time to arrive but nowadays it is quite effortless to send a message with just one click. Thus, there is on less need to write a letter on paper.

On the other hand, writing a letter is our traditional way to deliver some important information to others. there is some occasion when individual follow their old tradition. on that time no matter how technology develops. For example, when human beings want to invite their near and dear ones for the special occasion such as parties and wedding so they use the traditional method rather than the modern way. furthermore, some business letter also demands to write on paper instead of email.

To conclude, modern communication made our life uncomplicated because of easily approachable, less time-consuming. however, it is not fully replaced the value of the old way of communication.
