It's never this simple, but...

Question for myself for the day:

Am I being misleading, or am I being misunderstood?

note to self:

Other people do not have the same relationship and/or history to certain words that I do. I need to try and keep this in mind, daily. How to navigate the distance between my meanings and what often seems like the foreclosing of meanings by the usage of others is still very much in the works.
