We perceive/conceive messages in various ways for various reasons. Our messages are formulated with one or more persons as our intended audience---perhaps with some specific response as our intended effect. How we formulate our messages depends upon: what we have perceived, what we have conceived, our intentions, our hoped for response from the recipient, our ability to articulate in the language of choice; and our state of mind, heart, spirit and soul. Often our messages are changed a bit here and a bit there in the process of formulation, articulation and transmission. The received text/message is not quite what we intended it to be; even before the recipient(s) start to try to interpret and understand it. Our intended recipient(s) and perhaps some un-intended recipients are likely to change our message bit by bit as they work with it and try to intuit our intentions and perhaps some presumably hidden motives. How our messages are received, interpreted and understood depends as much upon those who receive, interpret and understand it---as upon our perceptions, conceptions, intentions, articulations, and transmissions. How recipients of our message respond to them depend as much upon their own personal histories, states of mind, intentions, language skills, fears, hopes and aspirations- --as upon any factor over which we may (or may not) have influence and/or control. We may be disappointed in how others respond to our messages. We may feel that they lack skills of understanding our "clear" messages; and blame them for carelessness. We may feel that we did our job well, but they did not do their job well. Such a response on our part due to our disappointment suggests that we do not understand how complicated effective communication is. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
