The Importance Of Communication
Philosophy For Change

One small thing can really change everything. It is a problem in every society, every social group, between friendships, relationship, everything. It is a fixable problem, no tools needed,no instruction manual, just an agreement between you and whoever else it may include.

Miscommunication

The failure to communicate adequately can be a hazard to your bondship with others, there needs to be a strong foundation in the relationship to completely understand not only WHAT is being said, but HOW it is being interpreted, People have different views, and different personalities. And I feel it is a terrible thing when a relationship or a friendship is diminished because one does not understand another.

How many times have you gotten in an argument or a disagreement with someone over what someone said, and then you later found out that that person meant something completely different from what was running through your head? How many times have you received a text from someone, read it, and didn’t understand what they meant by it. Could it have been an insult? A joke? or were they flirting?. Many forms.

Building a strong foundation with people should be a course of action that people take for not only this reason of miscommunication, but for many others as well.

It also comes down to understanding someone’s language. That does not always mean understanding the actual language that they speak, sometimes, it can mean understanding how they go about things, noticing the little things, maybe how sensitive they are or how hard-headed they can be. Their actions and personality traits as well, having a clear understanding that some thing’s may be hurtful to them, or, could be just hilarity.

Language is an unavoidable element of everyday life. It is arguably the most important medium by which humans communicate with one another. Without language, society would be a disorderly mess of miscommunication and ambiguity.

“The thing that I see that’s wrong with the world and the human predicament is lack of communication between human beings. It’s the way people are when it comes to communicating that keeps us from achieving real and total unity with one another. If people can’t agree one way or another on important issues that face them, how can they ever hope to achieve or defeat them?”

We will continue to run into situations in our daily lives that will require us to have a clear understanding with other people. Which is why we must communicate, without the “mis” in front of it.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
