Words are sharper than knives! Communication is the process where sending and receiving messages occur between two or more people. Communication can be divided by two ie verbally and non-verbal. Verbal communication occurs when words are used in communication, and the mouth functions the most. And by this process and procedure, it creates a string of words made to be processed and received by the recipient. So, to conclude verbal communication in one word is the word "WORDS". Verbal communication is the most used way to communicate and to socialize, and it does gives you lots and lots of advantages. But, with advantages, there also comes disadvantages. Words are sharper than knives. Try imagine a knife. If you accidentally cut your finger while slicing onions in the kitchen, you feel pain. Its piercing and tingling pain may not be much, but it is still pain. Blood may ooze out from the wound, and that increases the pain more. That is how words work. But to be even more exaggerating, it hurts more than cuts from knives, hence the phrase, words are sharper than knives. Meaning to say is that, when people talk something that is sensitive to people, it hurts them. And the difference between the wounds from a knife and the wounds from words is that, words hurt internally. ![]() When people uses verbal communication with the wrong purpose, or uses it wrongly, it causes pain to others. That is why we should think before we talk. We don't just simply blurt out things. Opinions are allowed to be given out and to be shared, but share it properly and make sure it doesn't affect your recipient. When problems like this occur in communication, then your socialization is not functioning properly. People with problems during verbal communications are also one of the causes to verbal bullying. It also causes friendship to be unbalanced. ---------- And yes, I am tired with people simply blurt out stuff at me. I know I'm sensitive with words, but I had tried my best to not be too sensitive. But today's situation just proved to me that sometimes it is not my sensitivity is at fault, but the communicator's usage of words is at fault. Think before you talk. Words really is sharper than knives. It hurts -- a lot. Trust me. 2:25 AM

Madza ya'ni My life is based on the phrases stated in the Quran, where Allah has told us : 51:56 "And [tell them that] I have not created the invisible beings and men to any end other than that they may [know and] worship Me." and also, 2:30 "Note that occasion, when your Rabb said to the angels: I am going to place a vicegerent on earth. The angels said: "Will You place there one who will make mischief and shed blood while we sing Your praises and glorify Your name?" Allah said: "I know what you know not."" Our purposes of life has been clearly stated in the Quran, So, why do we still to continue live otherwise? Greater people Clearly speaking, these people down here are just wonderful people. Give them a ring-a-ding-ding once in a while! :) Ira (1) Ira (2) Farahin APG (Inche Gabbana) |
