Communication in the Oxford Dictionary is defined as the activity or process of expressing ideas and feelings or of giving people information. It is important that humans need to communicate with one another as "no man is an island".
Right from Day One, a mother will try all means to communicate with her new-born baby and you can see the mother beaming with joy if the infant can just respond with one simple syllable word - MA.
People who are deaf and dumb still communicate with one another by using the sign language which is non-verbal.
A person with good communication skills tend to be more popular than someone who's quiet, passive and introvert. Hence, if you can communicate well you tend to be more expressive. Here Interpersonal Communication come into the picture, in order to have a relationship with any person, you need interaction. As we do so, we learn and reveal about others and self. This is made possible only with a two-way communication between the speaker and listener and vice versa.
A relationship suffer from "communication break-down" if there's only participation from one party who's willing to communicate and the other party who choose to remain silent.
We can conclude that communication is vital and essential in our everyday life. Thank you :)
