This true and true it be is why it’s so important to readers of our blogs to some how form the notion that we are real behind our words and if we express this in some form or another we, again using words, in a way, show that to be true.

We pretty much have three things we can use to determine a person’s intention. We have words; we have sight; we have sound. Sure, there’s touch, but if we go around touching each other someone’s either going to end up beaten up or in jail.

Let’s take this blog post, for instance. You have an image at the beginning, but all it says is “words”; that conveys the topic of this story is going to be about words, but doesn’t say anything else. You don’t have sound. You don’t have any other images. So, all we can go on is your words. If you couldn’t have conveyed to us your thoughts on this issue by what you typed, then there would have been no communication at all, since that’s all you could offer us.

So, the way I see it, sometimes words almost have to be enough, and what that means is that we, the ones using the words, have to be cognizant of what words we’re using when we’re trying to get across what we have to say. That can be difficult as more people around the world are learning languages like English without knowing the slang, and without realizing that we, especially we goofy Americans, can take one word and give it 20 different meanings, depending on our age or where we live around the country.

But look at the people who commented on your post here; could you say that your words, and only your words, weren’t enough to communicate your feelings so that they were understood by everyone? I think you did a fine job.
