The Grammar of Human Relations

Space and Gap – the difference explained as per my understanding 

Someone I consider a good friend said to me : There should be space in a relationship.
 I agree and agreed 

Kahlil Gibran says, in The Prophet, as counsel and advice on marriage (which was then considered to be the closest relationship)
“Be apart just as the pillars of the temple have to stay apart to keep the roof (relationship) from collapsing “
I agree 100 %

In my own world of words I realize that SPACE between characters and alphabets is essential for the structure of the sentence and its meaning .If space is removed the structure collapses!
So what my friend said is universally true and an essential teaching for any friendship to survive.

So I contemplated and came to understand that insecurity and lack of confidence make the SPACE  to be perceived as a GAP which we try to fill continuously

A GAP is defined in the dictionary as “an empty space between two things “ but if a friendship or any other relationship is worth anything this cannot be the definition

If we are sure of ourselves and confident of the position of the other just as the pillars and words are we will see the difference as a space and will respect it and honour it !

That is my aim going forward

There is another aspect of rules of Words which can also be applied to relations among Humans 

 Homophones: 

The Mimics 

 Same sound, different meaning, sometimes different spelling    

Examples: toed vs towed, flower vs flour, knight vs night.

Homonyms: Persons who look different but have similar intentions 

Same spelling and sound, but different meanings.

 Example: bat (the animal) vs bat (used in cricket/baseball). 

 Homographs: Same spelling, different meanings, may or may not sound the same. 

Example: lead (to guide) vs lead (the metal).

So if we go into the rules of grammar we come across many things to learn !
