Peace in my heart

Communication is a funny thing. Funny because one string of words could be presented to let's just say three or four different people and every one of those people could and probably would receive very different messages. I guess that's one of the reasons why they say that actions speak louder than words. That doesn't always apply though because there are situations where there are no actions to take.

I was at work the other day and I can't remember the exact situation, but someone said, "Things don't always come across the way you intend." You can be very well intended and put a great deal of thought into a message, but once you release your message out into the world you have no control over how it will be received.

We can make attempts to clarify our intentions, when we are misunderstood. However, sometimes it seems we are not able to get a clear message across, in that case, all we can do is hold on to the knowing we have within ourselves that we were well intended and let go.
