When he started telling me where to go, I realized that was not the way to the tavern, to which I commented, "Just where are we going?" He replied that we were going to look at stones for our front yard - operative words STONES and FRONT! OMG! Yes, he said those words but they had completely different meanings to each of us.
And isn't that the way it is in life? We attach meaning to words others use and sometimes, yes, sometimes and maybe even oftentimes, we misinterpret those words. It may behoove us to listen carefully and even ask questions so that we might communicate in a fuller and truer sense. No more guessing what he means - next time I will say, "You mean the tavern where we can get great steaks?" NO misunderstanding will occur then....Just sayin'....
