"There truth for everybody may be found, and confusion only- only temporary, thought Willhelm." pg 80. One way or another, we all have the same problems and joys. We all know what pain is, what fear, hope, love, and other such feelings are. We have all lived through them at a moment or another. Then why is it so hard for us to sometimes see and understand what the other people are feeling? Aren't we supposed to know what effect a certain emotion has on us? Unless we are someone that has never experienced something like pain or hope, we are bound to knowing what effect these emotions have on ourselves. If you see someone going through a situation you know about because of your personal experiences, you automatically begin thinking about what you felt and how that person must be feeling it. All of our experiences tie in with them, but many times we don't react, but rather think it alone and recreate it for ourselves. How hard is it for us to actually try and help the person out as we know we would love others to do if it were us that stood in their place? The situation is the same, we know that. We know what happens, what we could do, and what the possible outcomes are. But then comes a second problem, which Willhelm talks about. We know the situation other people are in, but the way in which we communicate with them is having trouble.
.
Both people involved in a conversation know to what they want to get to, but the communication process is difficult to get through. We often have to go through long processes while explaining to someone the circumstances that lead to something ending up being another thing. And it goes beyond feelings. We all share characteristics such as having a mother and a father, the way we are physically, with the characteristics every human being has, and stuff such as how we are taught and the activities we carry along. We know we share this with other people, but stuff as simple as that sometimes get confused in our conversations, so we end up spreading them even more by putting stuff that's supposed to be that way anyways. We therefore all know the truth of something, only that we keep adding stuff in our way of transferring information that doesn't need to be said, creating confusion. Once we get everything together, we understand each other because we know what it feels like to be in their position. We know a situation and perform according to it because we are involved with it in a way. We share various characteristics, and so our logical way to act would be in an understanding, prudent environment
