that people mean the same things just because we use the same words?!

I don't. usually people using the same words do not mean the same thing.
nice question.
come to think of it, people seldom say what they mean anyway, regardless of their words.

Choose your words wisely. If you don't know the root of a word, look up the definition. What does a "Red Neck" mean to people in California or Alaska??? Probably that the person has a sunburn or frostbite. Down south it is taken to mean backwards, hillbilly, etc.

I guess not
Same words can come in different context giving a wide variety of meanings.

Unfortunately i do, i mean every word i say and i take to heart every word that is spoken to me. However, sometimes misunderstandings happen and it is only then that i sometimes wish they take back their words or that i have never spoken aslan.

I think we do. Our brain, experiences, reactions are based on what we learn from life so it could be that our comprehension is derived from the same bracket of life.

yes most of the problems arises cause we assume, assume is the most dangerous in our life. if you break the word assume it looks like. Assx / u / me. (dont read the x please) that is what happens.

words , words , words !
actions speak louder than words.
we cannot take words at their face value.
but our actions indicate our intentions , feelings, and thoughts.
so, i always wait till i see the actions to trust the words .
