Communication as form of travel

What if I could take you on a journey. It will be just you and me. To land a far away from where you are now.

To me, That is what communication is like.

It’s taking the person you’re speaking or writing to and bringing them to your favourite place. You’ve been there so often it feels special, serene, and precious.

Maybe you’ve lived there for years; maybe you’ve only just discovered it. Either way, right now you’re the only person there and you want to share it with people who’ll appreciate it.

That's what communicating your thoughts feel like. You wish to transcend them to the land far away.

Maybe you’ve figured something out you want to share. Maybe it’s a brand new idea no one’s heard before.

It all depends on how you take them there. Did you travel there by feet - step by step or you just teleported them there with anywhere door.

Did you hold their hand to walk into the room or just pushed them off the cliff.

Not sure? Look at them - you will know. Are they there yet with you in your favourite place?

If they are, you won’t need many words; a single nod will do.

That's all the practice of communicating is. Travelling with the another person through your thoughts.
