An ideal definition of a society only thrives on interaction and communication amongst people and environment.
In every society, there's always the need to communicate so emotions, ideas, feelings, information can be properly transmitted. In the age of past, people learned the act of communication, so there is a easier way to communicate, by people breaking into age groups, and same situations groups. So we saw married people communicate to other married people, so they could pass the similar emotions and experience, parents talking to their children ( to pass on norms and tradition and correction), children communicating to other children (to play and have fun), young ladies communicating among themselves and young men amongst them. This was when the essence of communication was seen and effective.
However today we live in a world where everyone has resulted to communication using mobile and gadgets. So the essence of physical communication has declined, since people don't talk as often. The essence men of old upheld high about communication has been regard less. So a normal scenario we see today is a room of people, everyone buried their head to their phones.
One of the importance of physical communication is the inability to hide true emotions as the words flow out. Because there is great possibility that someone saying "I am fine" over the phone is actually crying. The essence and importance of physical communication is being able to read the emotions even when they don't match the words.
One of the defects of this is that the rate of depression is growing daily. People don't see others dying because it has been communicated that they are fine. People do not fully express themselves since the ideal response to a question should be positive. Silence has crept into the space of communication today. Everyone would rather be quiet about their feelings.
In the time of old, when men want to woo a lady, they put in an effort to get the right words prepared, the best behavior prepared so that they appear or present themselves to be amazing.
But today, it's almost "get to the point", "state your reason"," be direct". Less emotions, less preparation and bad communication. So I think this is a situation that needs to be addressed.
