Tag Archives: The Book of Mormon

There’s a gap between the writer and the reader
The listener and the speaker
The giver and the receiver
…
There’s a space between the meaning and the words
What’s said and what’s heard
What’s alleged and occurred
…
Understood and what’s meant
received and what’s sent
The action vs. the intent
…
Communication can lead to frustration
It’s hard to feel good when you’re misunderstood
Hate that darn, gaping gap
‘tween what’s real and abstract
…
So what’s the solution?
What can be done?
Should we try or surrender?
Can this battle be won?
..
It’s a tough transition; an imperfect, uncertain change
To try and speak the same language, be on the same page
But that’s why we’re here, right? That’s part of the test.
Sounds cheesy, I know, but just do your best!
