Communication vs Conversation

Two way roads
many exits and entrances
long thoroughfares
blind alleys
sound barriers
Navigation around
detours
road blocks
street lights
road signs
twists and turns
sharp corners
Hearing
what is being said
who is saying it
emotion expressed without words
Bridging differences in 
language
literacy
understanding
opinion
Communication and conversation
learned within family
expanded in school
developed in community
ever growing in depth
taught by everyone.

"To listen closely and reply well is
the highest perfection we are able
to attain in the art of conversation.
   - Francois de La Rochefoucauld
