In the morning and amazing.

Communication. Something we do almost every second of every day. Text messages. Phone calls. Facial expressions. Body language. Words. Actions. Writing. Reading. Did I miss any? Of course I did. There are probably anywhere from ten to ten thousand ways to communicate at any given moment. The way she looks at me and turns up the corners of her mouth slightly as her eyes light up in some subtle but unbelievable way easily says more than thousands of words ever could. If only every gesture and every word could be given as much meaning as that one little smile. I think we'd get a little closer to that if we could all talk a little less and listen a little more. It's not like anyone's saying anything that hasn't been said before anyway. But maybe if we'd pause once in a while we'd hear something we hadn't heard before.
