Ask or Assume

Communication problem....

In today's world with so many telecommunications device in place,  we still encounter communication problems.. there's fax machine, phones, mobile phones,  emails, blogs and many other portals that connects us to the whole.. its like the entire network is in place in order for us to have better communication but is this really true?

Even when dealing with day to day problesm we do encounter communication issues.. like for instance misunderstanding often arise from communication issues.. it is often misunderstood what is expressed verbally between 2 parties but does that mean we should just stop communicating..

I have learnt throughout the years that it's better to ask than to assume.. assumptions is the biggest communication fault. Though many will agree but we never realised that many of us do assume but every assumption needs to be clered by this communication methods called asking..

So what is the harm of asking?

Will u let assumptions killed communications or will u let assumptions be the core issues that will lead to things being misunderstood and further mislead and God knows how long will it go..
