Imagine two men facing each other, pointing past one another. One is pointing at a tornado that is coming,
and the other at a raging fire headed towards them. Each sees their own truth and is angry at the sight of
the other’s hand. Each feels that the other’s hand is “wrong.” This may seem silly, but replace the tornado
and fire with any modern issues, and the hands with words, and this scene describes how we often try to
communicate.
We want to prove our words are the right ones, instead of learning to look at what the other’s words are
pointing at. Words are seductive, and for all their undeniable usefulness, they also can lead us away from
understanding when we focus on them, when we make them more important than the truth they are meant
to point at.
