MIsunderstanding

I would take up this word as this, we can see in every relationship. The relationships are broken due to this word,the information is not being communuicated or received properly. Hence people are being misunderstood very easily.

I would take the case of newly married husband and wife. There was once a programme, in which wife asked her husband to attend. The husband in turn did not want to attend, he denied intially, she was taken aback and had an argument with her husband that he didn't loved her, he didn't value her. She associated the terms of loving and value with the actual love. So husband came, next time, there was a programme which wife didn't wanted to attend but attended because her husband attended last time. Evetually their love, value and respect got connected with give and take. Just because there was give and take they thought that their relation is going pretty well.

But eventually after 2-3 years when they found that nothing is going well, the other person actually has not got no love or respect they were in despair and then started throwing tantrums at each other.

They joined mediation and yoga class in which they found that they were throwing tantrums and very having very unnecessary expectations from each other. And they misunderstood the concept of loving and valuing with material things.
