Communication can easily be misinterpreted ranging from facial expressions, body gestures, hand movement, phone conversations, emails, social networking, etc.. Today, I am concentrating on the largest social networking site in the world, Facebook.
The pyramid effect of ones friends list can truly be an amazing experience. Meeting new people, making new friends, and reconnecting with lost friends or family. There is a flaw in this social place, which could damage relationships forever! This defect I am talking about is left on the receiving end of the message. Just because someone can read does not mean that they interpreted the words the actual way they were meant to be received.
A perfect example, "Can you hear me now"? This one liner can be in fact understood in many different ways such as: Do your ears hear the sound of my voice, Am I speaking clearly for understanding, kind of yelling to get a point across, comically, and so many more versions.
If I were to post a message which read, "I am under the weather today", how would you receive those words? When you do not see the face behind the message you cannot be for sure what they are trying to communicate and it is human nature to go straight into a my mode, if you will. A place where we use our own understanding on the words we are reading.
This my mode, can cause one to cancel their friendship, start a Facebook war, become emotional, or dramatically respond. I am sure you get my drift.
I am posting this from my own personal recent experience, so I wanted to share how it all went down for you!
One of my friends has had a year full of tramatic experiences and being the encourager that I am, I thought I should lift her spirit and give her some food for thought, as well as, food for the soul. So, I posted on her facebook page.
Nothing was ever said to me and a week has gone by. Now something else happened and boom she laid in on me. Told me I did not know her, cursed me in the worst way and truly hurt my feelings. She stated that I posted on Facebook a post that would undermine her character in the worst way. She even told me to read it after I repeatedly told her she should know me better than that!
Since that text message break up, I have removed her and any of her friends on my friends list. I am also, very apprehensive as to ever post another encouraging word to anyone!
Be very careful of what you say when people cannot see your face or they have no idea of who and how you are!
Communication Static
Static in communication means to me that either you cannot understand due to noise or like my interpretation where the message is not received by the intended recipient with the correct knowledge of how the message reads.

System Recovery
They say a cat has nine lives and my computer has an unknown amount of reboots! I also, have the ability to run my recovery discs to completely refresh and start anew, my systems. The trouble with Life Recovery is there is no backup and restore. All systems move continuously forward, but if we look hard we can view a brief moment of our systems, as they are failing! We just don't recognize the missing codes due to all things, which seem normal and are a part of our everyday!
Life has taught us to be on a time schedule with never enough time to be idle. We spend our day entirely to busy. We can go months, even years without recognizing our systems are failing. Generally, it is to late to repair or recover the losses.
Binary coding allows us to communicate, excel, perform miracles, if you will! If only, we could train our minds to system reboot before the damage is done. Take PTSD for instance, if we could reboot immediately after a traumatic event we would never have Veterans stuck in that God-forsaken place within the mind, body, and soul! Children whom are abused in any way could actually have the life they were meant to live.
System recovery, If only I had the capability of birthing this great and much needed fantasy of mine!
I wish everyone suffering from physical, mental and emotional scars the best possible life! I know that is almost ignorant of me, but my heart is in the perfect spot to make wishes! PEACE!

The Move
Stars still shine, as the sun begins to peek over the Eastern Horizon. I am about to start a normal uneventful day without any thoughts of changing anything in my life other than a self-help kick here and there. The coffee had just finished brewing when I hear a voice ask me, "are you ready to move back where the Bass fishing is most awesome"? What? I need some coffee! Again the voice repeats, " are you, as ready as, I am to make a 2450 mile journey back to the south"?
I at this moment am entirely having an outer-body experience. I have waited six long years to hear the question, which just raced through my mind!
This moment happened not even 25 days ago. Since that very time and space I have been in my own extreme sports ride, if you will!
Mentally, I have been traveling faster than the speed of sound! Emotionally, I have been on the World's tallest, fastest, scariest, and gravity defying roller coaster!
I gave my employer a 24 day notice to quit. I called all utilities and set cancellation dates. I went and priced all moving truck companies in the area. I collected boxes (more than enough) for the move. I networked housing, jobs, and churches. I have completed my todo list and now the move is actually more visual than before now!
What am I to leave behind? My new found friends, my family, the stuff in the boxes still from the last move, my job, my home, my panoramic view of the Cascade Mountain Range, my culture, my...my...my...OK now the para and sympathetic nervous systems are taking over everything.
How is it that when we want something so bad that we actaully have second thoughts about it. Do I really want this? Am I sure? I just don't get it!
I have packed the bulk of my belongings, cleaned and now I am getting excited again! YAY!
