Languages are just like bridges connecting to form a spectrum of sounds and expression heading to one ambition.. communication.

Languages form ridges as I tried to express myself using gesticulation.
The potholes on my skin make me feel insecure and I am hoping you can see the silent words of affirmation that I cannot express.
You speak in chants and I speak in rhyme..we don't understand each other .We need to find a common ground,a language that can help us build a connection.Screaming is not going to help . We need a language that will bridge our ridges of imperfection .
