Once words leave us, they begin to live a life of their own.
What someone hears is shaped by who they are. Their memories, wounds, beliefs. No message stays pure. It bends, shifts, and settles in ways we can’t predict.
Still, silence isn’t the answer. Unspoken thoughts stay hidden. If we don’t speak, some ideas may never reach others at all. Sometimes, even a misunderstood word can open a door.
The writer’s/speaker’s task is to offer. The receiver’s task is to choose, to take it, twist it, toss it, or treasure it. The relationship between speaker/writer and listener/receiver is a delicate thread of offering and interpretation, where both shares responsibility.
So, speak if it matters. Write if it feels true.
At times, effective communication can help close this gap to some degree.
Cheers!
