Silent Hurt

Nowadays it seems so simple to hurt and be hurt.
It may just be me, and may be I am a tiny wallflower but the amount of misconceptions and behaviours people have lead to an incredible quantity of hured feelings.
Sometimes people shout because they are concerned, hence conveying a message of intense feelings that does not speak at all about the true feeling that is behind that passionate response.
The use of computer mediate communication increases the level of confusion. Typically there is no feeling in the words, leaves a lot of room for speculation on the side of the person receiving the message.

Are you well?
Me! I am fine!

Is he being funny? Is he being serious? Is it irony? Is it anger?

So many many misconceptions, and in the end all the words that are written lack the proper emotion that can helps understand all the elements needed to fully understand what the true meaning was, and even then, there is the possibility that the person is hidding something.
I am not a strong believer in mankinds resolve to make peace among themselves, but at least they manage to live all the misconceptions with a fair amount of cynicism and sarcasm, until they become mad as hell and scream out from their lungs: "I can't take it anymore!".

So, why do we hurt each other so much?
Because you do not really understand the other, not really, just a tiny part, the one that matters to us.
To trully appreciate the other one should pay close attention to the body motion, the words, the sound, the display of affecttion.
And maybe the, we can see the hurt within and respect their right for pain.
