Greetings Dear Reader,
If you do not yet know what an Emoji is, you may wish to
remain in the bliss of ignorance. 😊 An Emoji is “a small digital image or icon
used to express an idea or emotion.” They are popular enough to get their own
plush toys and even a very bad movie. ☹
I may use more Emoji (not “Emojis”) in this post than all
the collective Emoji I have ever used. For those who are baffled about the meanings
of Emoji, there is an Emoji Encyclopedia. 👍 One can insert
them into one’s text by simply pressing the WIN and period keys at the same time. This brings up a box with thousands of choices. You may wish to consult the Emojipedia before
going too crazy on this. 😁
So, what, you may ask does this have to do with following Jesus? I am glad you asked even if you did not. ⁉ Even though it seems to be a simple playful
thing it has value in communication. It
can bridge communication barriers. I once
had a conversation to give directions to someone who did not speak English
using only Emoji. 😲 It proved useful to be able to help.
Anything we can do to enhance our ability to help or communicate
has great value. 💰 We can also benefit from the brevity of
conversation when texting or using other messaging tools. ✍ Emoji are also
valuable in communicating emotion. 💖🤟 There
is a danger of being misunderstood, so, again there is Emojipedia.
I think my favorite Emoji are those that represent food. Here is a message I received from a friend
recently. “Do you want to get 🍕 and 🍺, or would you rather get🍔 and 🍟
at 🔔🔔? Can you 🚙?” Were the
bells unclear to you Dear Reader? There
is a great burger place here called Bell’s.
I am sure you understood the rest of this. The point is that she was able to communicate
more in a smaller space.
I think that Emoji will have a long run at being a popular
trend. I use them rarely but will learn
them so that I understand others. There
is great value for me in understanding what others communicate. Your thoughts and insights always get my
attention Dear Reader. What do you think
of Emoji?
This is not as deep as most of my thinking but it is also
important. Tomorrow I will return to
deeper things. For today, however, know
that 🤟 and am
thankful that you read my 📚.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every
writer who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a
homeowner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store.”
