"La gente me entiende tan mal que ni siquiera entienden mi queja sobre que no me entienden."
— Soren Kierkegaard
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, people just don't get what you're trying to say, even when you're telling them that they don't understand you. Imagine a student trying to explain a math problem to their friends, and no one gets it. The student then says, "You don’t understand what I'm explaining!" But their friends still don't understand what they're being told. It's frustrating because the issue isn’t just about a mismatch in understanding the math problem—it's deeper. The friends don't realize that their lack of understanding is a problem itself. It's like trying to solve two problems at once: the initial misunderstanding and the struggle to even get that across. To avoid this, try being patient and clear with each other, making sure both sides are really listening and asking questions if they’re confused. This can create better communication and fewer misunderstandings.
