“Toen ze de fabriek ontdekte, heel ver van het dorp, aan de randen van het gebied dat ze in een dag kon bereiken, liep ze er lang omheen zonder naar binnen te durven gaan. Ze werd weerhouden door het monsterlijke geluid dat ontsnapte uit het gebouw, omheind door twee rijen hoge hekken die in het midden waren ingestort en verwoest. Alles was verlaten. De hoofdingang stond open en daaruit ontsnapte een jammerklacht, half smeekbede, half uitgeputte woede, vergezeld door dunne rook met vonken die rook naar metaal, motorolie en verbrand elastiek.”

“When we miss the meaning of a language, we miss the real essence and impact of communication. If we lose the real meaning of a language, we lose the real understanding of a language. Friendship is developed and nurtured through effective communication and that is the great tool that shapes friendship. A good communication, regardless of how short it might be is a great litmus paper that proves who a true friend or false friend is. A good communication does not only trigger the best bond but it also uncovers things in the heart that are hidden from the eyes. Without an effective communication, real friendship and real love between two great people is just like two great mountains with a valley between them. Without communication, we lose what we could have heard from real people. When we miss the meaning of a language, we miss the real essence and impact of communication!!!”
