the language question

In a world based on narrow self-interest,it is not surprising that language has become a bone of contention between individuals,socieities and cultures.
The key to good communication skills is to be a good listener rather than a good speaker.A good listener is patient and does not jump to conclusions straightaway.Conversation is intended to create a feeling of harmony and goodwill between people and not for asserting oneself.One should be ready to give up one's own point of view ito make the other person happy.
People with a cosmopolitan outlook know that most people in the world have the same needs.They do not hold grudges against anybody and always try theeir best to keep a relationship going.
It is only when extraneous considerations arise,that people are divided on the basis of language,region,colour,race etc.
The politicians all over the world keep on raising some bogey or the other to divide people to perpetuate their hold.It is the responsibility of the elderly and responsible citizens of the world to do whatever they can to create an atmosphere of peace and harmony between people.
