For someone who struggles with starting his therapeutic rants, I find that this one is in fact rather EASY to start.
What is the meaning of life?
Well, the core of our very existence, pretty much on any and every level as human beings, is relationships.
The core of ANY relationship is communication.
The basis for communication is contact.
The reason for contact, is intrest.
The root of interest is attraction.
And the reason for attraction, is to initiate…
Drum roll PLEASE!
~Explosive drum roll!~
RELATIONSHIPS!
Holy fucking shit-faced cock twisted bitch slapping Mother Teresa on a godammed saltine cracker…
With Cheddar Cheese dipping sauce I might add.
Ask any over paid, under educated, cheap suit or sweater wearing sociologist, psychologist, behaviorist, therapist, or any other number of ist’s gist’s and the rest of the liberal arts graduates who specialize in the fucked up study of human nature, and behavior, and one of the very first things they will tell you, is that any healthy relationship is built upon two key factors; Communication and Trust.
They will also tell you, that ultimately, for any MEANINGFUL relations between persons, you cannot have one without the other.
Digging into this just a bit, because I really don’t want to go totally in-depth, we can surmise that every form of communication that we as humans use, is important, even more so in our flashy sci-fi dream driven world of e-mail, text messages and web-cams.
Gone are the days of long sought after letters from a loved one or friend from far over the horizon, now we can write to one another just about anywhere, a message as long or short as we so chouse, with links to news, pictures and videos, or even the content itself IN the message.
We can now talk to a person, voice to ear, dammed near anyplace on earth, at pretty much any time we so wish it to be, press a few buttons and ka-bam-o, you’re talking, your texting, your e-mailing, you’re video chatting, all at the speed of electricity and energy waves.
Fast forward someone from 20 years ago, and show them all this amazing shit, and they’d SWEAR it was either A) a utopian society ripped from the annals of Sci-Fi-dom, or B) fucking magic.
Yeah they had Cell phones in the 80’s but they where little more than slimmed down crappy walkie-talkie’s that could phone home on occasion, but nothing on the order of what we now take for granted now and days.
And its not just the simple act of talking that’s gone uber-tech on crack.
Oh yeah. Here it comes, cover the eyes and ears of the little ones.
Sex.
You can have an affare with a person 2000 miles away, and in some places, get away with it, because there’s still the issue of distance and physicality and such.
If you want to nit-pick that, fine, but the simple fact is, an orgasm is an orgasm, and an orgasm along in masturbation, fine and dandy, normal and healthy blah blah, bullshit n noise, you’ve heard all of that, but then an orgasm shared and or caused and or in anyway shared with another human, is, in most basic terms, sex.
Intercourse, oral, anal, digit, dry hump, or web cam, if you and someone else are aroused, ascend, plateau, climax, and then refrain, (or any of those really) together in ANY fashion, then congrats, you’ve just had sexual relations, that is, your relationship was under the influence, guise, context and or otherwise the overall purview of sex.
Having said all of that, it should be clear where I’m about to go.
When there is a break in communication, a ripple, a stoppage, a lessening or disruption of any kind, then all kinds of things can happen.
The most common is the classic “huh?” moment, which we all have, all the time, every day, no big deal.
Next is the “say what?” or “what was that?” about the same as above, a tad more impactful, because it tends to lead to some overlap in the exchange, which will lead to some confusion, but is of course, no massive big deal, and it tends to get worked out pretty quickly and without fuss.
The above examples are of course, everyday things that are not on purpose, they just happen, it’s a part of life.
However, other ripples, hic-ups and other such break downs in communication, can range from technology not quite working as it should, (which is far more common than you might think) to intentional breaks on the flow or exchange of thoughts, ideas, and meanings.
It is the intentional stoppages, that will harm a relationship, if there is no reason or rhyme to it given, and in its essence a form of abuse, however THAT is in the extreme cases where someone is TRYING to hurt another, by cutting them off.
We as humans are gifted with speech, and creative output, art, music, and yes, technology, the ways, and manner, and speed with which we can exchange ideas, thoughts, and information is simply staggering.
We must endeavor to use them all, to the best of our ability.
We must also not forget that sometimes, many times, shit happens.
