Communication is part of what makes a community greater. If a community does not spend time trying to communicate with each other, then we are not going to be able to do something good. I feel like we all need to be mature and we all need to realize the power of communication. I want to evolve and I think that we all need to realize just how important communication is to the evolution of our community and the society itself.
