What would you rather lose?
Today I took a groupal lesson and we were playing a game where we had to choose between two really bad options and explain our decision.
So the teacher asked if we would rather lose our reading or writing ability. It's a hard question for me since I love both. People in the class were thinking about writing as a job, only for skilled authors, but I was thinking about writing in our daily life: send messages, write notes, messages in the street, etc.
I think I prefer losing my writing ability because, at least it can be replaced by other options such as talking to people, pictures, drawings, etc; but reading is almost imposible to be replaced. Even if there are audios, the experience is not the same. Reading is an intimate relation between the text and me...

I think I'd prefer losing my writing ability because at least it could be replaced by other options such as talking to people, pictures, drawings, etc; however, reading is almost irreplaceable. Even if there were audio recordings, the experience is not the same. Reading is an intimate relationship between the text and me...
