I just ordered a delicious Chicago's pizza on Montrose by picking up my phone and communicating my wishes to the Mexican chick who works there who will relay that message to the cooks, who will hand the finished pie to the driver eventually and thru communication between them let him know where to take it to give to me....I will leap out of my bushes and pounce on him, beat him senseless and take what is rightfully mine, a delicious Chicago's pizza with garlic and chicken on top. This will be accomplished thru communication, and violence.

I don`t know if I could ever figure out your idea of a delicious Chicago's pizza.Not even if we eat the same pizza together.

But what happens if it arrives with onions and bacon instead? Messages get garbled.

Communication can be very difficult, even between two people speaking the same language. We all have different ways of expressing ourselves and we all have slightly different takes on different concepts.

Take "love" for example. When I say that word everyone gets a different idea in their heads as to what it means. There's different kinds of love for one thing. Love for your family, your friends, your pets and your lovers. You can love the game of baseball or some band. Maybe you love a particluar food, or a certain type of sunny summer day. Maybe there's locations you "love" or a car you once owned.

Everyone has had different experiences with it too. All of us have been hurt by love at some point and we all reacted differently. Some of us get back on the saddle, others give up and never let themselves love again.

So I would say communication is barely possible and never perfect. If it was, do you think we would have the problems in the world that we have? Not just between nations but internal problems as well?
it's not the length, it's the gersch

The limits of language are so frustaiting to me . .
Sometimes I think that an effective communication is nothing but illusion.
I know that we need the language,but we should also try to find ways to break It ...
