Communication...

An Art...

The First Skill Acquired...

By A Human Being...


~~~

Communication is a key skill that shapes the way, the world perceives us, and also the way we perceive the world.
It is a stepping stone to the creation of a strong personality.

The first cry of babies?

It's the first sound into the world.
The first hint of language.

The first pointer to Communication...

~~~

Remember that chapter on 'Means Of Communication' taught to us in Standard III or IV?

The necessity to communicate that would make us a more confident and expressive individual?

Starting with Sign Language...
Moving On To Speak...
Learning The Alphabet...
Practicing To Write...

With Those 'Show & Tell' Sessions, At School...
Those Speech, Essay & Debate Competitions...

Those JAM Sessions At College...

And, An Eternally Inseparable Part Of Academics...

The Viva - Voce!!!

All these made me learn the art of Expression...

Turn to Articulation from Reticence...

Fine tune my personality to Oration than Silent Observation...



~~~

28 Years down the line into a profession that demands Communication...

Communication...
Communication...

And Communication 24/7...

It's the Teaching profession that has aided me to sharpen my Communication Skills...

And turn into an Effective Communicator...

Day By Day...

~~~

The endless interactions I've had...

As a Student myself, 30 Years back in time, with my Teachers, Professors & Mentors...

To those as a Teacher, at present, with my Students...

~~~

19 Years down the line into Parenthood...

The endless interactions I've had...

As a Mother to my Daughter...

~~~

It's All In The Name Of Communication...

And, Effective Communication At That...

That I've made myself the person I Am, Today...

Be it as the various roles, I get to portray each day of this Life...

Or, As a member of the Socially Aware Community of Homo-Sapiens, that I'm a part of...



~~~

I Owe It All...

To...

The Art, That Is Communication...

~~~

As for the difference in how I communicate differently Online than in person...

Online - You witness the Content, which transforms itself into Intent, according to what you perceive...

In Person - You witness the Content & Intent both, In Person...
