Don't you find it funny sometimes, that people we don't know, know so much about us, including those things we don't know of ourselves?? Some people will see you moving around in the streets everyday without saying a word to you & feel like they know you.
Some people will understand how you communicate but still won't get what you're saying
Some people know nothing about how you communicate but the fact that you speak the same language will make them understand exactly what you'd be saying.
Some will read random texts that they'll relate to and feel it's their situation that's under scrutiny... esp if the text is from a familiar source. But there's nothing new under the sun.
Your situation has been experienced by billions of other people.
That's why we relate to things that are none of our business or those things that our thoughts and ideas have no clue whatsoever about.
Quite often as people we see things happening around us and try to make sense out of it. Some of us who are not so smart even spread rumors
People will see you preach the word of God with confidence and conviction and think you to be a religious person or tell everyone you're a papa.

Many are times we attach a narrative to people around us that best fits our understanding of society so that we maintain our sanity
We attach a label to people based on the info we have. For instance, I feel homosexuality is a mental disorder because according to the science I've been exposed to; the lock & key mechanism in reference to enzymes, magnetics and attraction in physics, reproduction in biology etc
- it's practically abnormal for like poles of a magnet to attract, people of different sexes to reproduce & blah blah blah and that's what governs my laws surrounding some of these interactions. But then race comes in and you find people of different races coming together...
...and it leaves question marks around my understanding. Nevertheless, what is normal to me is only subject to the information I have. My wisdom, however, also informs me and helps me navigate life. Whether I'm wise or not is reflected in the decisions I make every single day
My 4:20 thoughts on language and communication...

Something that's been on my mind for a while and I thought to tweet it for opinions sake
Like I said, some people understand how you communicate and others don't. I know what I intend to achieve with this thread, and probably those who understand how I communicate do too. Many others know only as much as their wisdom and knowledge allows.
Interestingly, there are people who will see intentions I know nothing of, but to them that's the only sense I'm making.

"It's a dangerous thing to do to go out painting something black and white before other people, especially when that thing you're painting is a person."
Wisdom & experience taught me that.
But sometimes black is black & white is white & that's a fact. What's even more interesting is that to some, black is called white & vice versa

So in as much as we'd try to communicate with others, understanding them completely, is impossible
Partly due to a language barrier

But there's nothing new under the sun so if you relate to something, never assume it involves your situation, especially from a source that you have no clue whatsoever about. Just take it as an indication that you're not so special after all.
Well, you may be special in your own ways but PLEASE, go and be special somewhere else now. shoo 😁 😁
