The Water Is Boiling

You just cannot assume anything
When it comes to communication

Like when you tell someone
The water is boiling

That particular someone will know
The water temperature is 100 degrees

Or if you say you are thirsty
People will give you water

But generally speaking
Assumptions abound everywhere

Based on what people see
And what they hear or experience

So that if you go up the mountain
And tell someone the water is boiling

That someone may assume
The water boils at 100 degrees

When in fact on this mountain
It boils at less than 100

Quite similar to how people
Apply assumptions everywhere

In any situation regardless of
The environment

Thinking water boils at 100
Anywhere and everywhere
