Communication?

So, the question today is......communication, i mean people talking with others about life and other things, sharing experiences and emotions, telling good and bad things that happen to them, communicating........and so many times, theres no need of words to communicate.....a smile, a tear, a touch on the shoulder, a hug, everything can show to the others how we are feeling.....

but why am i talking about this now? maybe because so many times in my life theres a lack of communication............when people who are friends are together, theres communication between them.....they trust enough in each other and care enough about each others lives, that they enjoy talking about so many things, and that communication gets both lives richer and richer everyday........

but if theres no communication between two friends doesnt that mean that theres no friendship between them? even if they are together?

once i heard a story about an old couple that were married for ages.......it looked like they were happy, and their life was quiet and nice...........one day somebody went to visit them and then they had lunch............during the lunch, the visitor asked the lady if she wanted butter to put on her slice of bread and she said "no thanks i never enjoyed butter in my life"...........her husband was very amazed because every morning they took together the breakfast during years, and he never imagined that his wife didnt like butter..........

well, what does that mean? such a couple who lived together for so many years, were they really friends? such a little detail as this one, the butter one, maybe its not important, but then we think "why that lady never told her husband that she didnt like butter? why she didnt communicate that to him? why that man never understood the tastes of his wife?".............only a simple detail but maybe during all their lives other details and maybe much more important, were ignored or misunderstood...............

so, when people say that they are our friends and that care about us, and then they are with us, we feel so happy to be with them, isnt it? but if they are with us but theres no communication, what kind of friendship is that?

how many times it has happened that we are with a friend and we are talking about us, about our things, and our friend is there, is listening to us, or pretends to be listening to us, but pratically doesnt talk with us, and we keep talking and talking, and time passes by and we feel more and more alone, we feel we are talking for nobody, we feel that person whos with us isnt there, is miles and miles away............well, the body is there but not the soul, and when we say goodbye we feel something is missing, something very important is missing.................

and whats missing is communication, its interaction between people who are so close, and then we think if that friendship really exists............

well, as always, theres no answers to my questions, there are no people commenting my posts or saying something nice that would make me feel a bit better, but hey thats life, isnt it?

goodnight to everybody
