Did you understand someone else better after you had read what he/she wrote?
Answer:
I enjoy peace. Every day I take time to sit and get a me-time. I do this on the terrace in the evening or at the nearby park in the morning. Doing so, I do not use my earphones or mobile or anything.
In the morning, I just look at the birds flying around and the sun in the sky. I enjoy the sound of the birds chirping and the leaves rustling against each other because of the peaceful breeze.
In the evening, I look at the stars and try to find out the shapes they make.
Yes, the notes on the wall helped me to understand my friends better when I read what they had written.
