Communication can fall apart when we apply our thoughts and intentions instead of pretending for one moment that the person or people you are speaking to will not understand what you are trying to say. I have been dealing with this all week and though we are to rejoice in our place, this can lead to frustrations. For example, at work we were sent an instant message asking if we had a letter on our desk to take it up to management for further instructions. We were all looking for a piece of paper with words on it, including a greeting and salutation on it and failed to connect that the reference was to some index cards with the letter "B" or "A" written on them which had been handed out the previous day. Simple mistake. God Bless.
