A few months ago I bought a notebook and decided to start keeping a personal journal to gather all my thoughts and ideas, but I soon found it to be a difficult task.  In my day-to-day life, as I’m sure it is with most of us, I hardly ever pick up a writing utensil.  Mostly all the writing I do is on a computer. If I do pick up a pen it’s usually just to sign my name on some document I probably didn’t even take the time to read.

Over the years I’ve notice my handwriting to be decreasing in quality.  My hand cramps up nearly every time it comes in contact with a pen or pencil.  And good luck trying to read it unless you specialize in decryption or hieroglyphics.

With the way technology is advancing, I wonder if the pen and paper era is quickly coming to a close, and what the world is going to look like when this age-old art-form is laid to rest.
