It's difficult to communicate when you're on different wavelengths.
Miscommunication is easy, especially when you're coming at things from a different angle from the person you're trying to communicate with. It can feel like being on trains on parallel tracks, moving alongside one another in the same direction for a while, but never arriving at the same place.
We have to work hard at understanding where someone else is 'coming from' if we want to communicate well with them. Getting to know people, their culture, their history, can help us in this endeavour.
