Communication

Communication is a major aspect of everything.  The difficulty with it, though, is that there are so many ways that things can be perceived, whether it’s the actual words, tone, or non-verbal communication.  This reminds me of the kind of communication that my friends and I have with each other.  All it takes is a “look”, nudge, or key phrase and we instantly know what the other is meaning to get across. 

On a more serious note, Harold B. Lee stated it well when he said, “We should communicate so clearly, not only to be understood, but that we can’t be misunderstood.”  We need to make sure that our body language, facial expressions, tone, and words accurately express what we are trying to say, so that there is no confusion or misconception.
