Personally, I feel that communication is necessary in our everyday lives, for without it we would be living in a world in which two of our basic five senses are under-utilised, namely sight and hearing. Now you may be wondering how is sight relevant to communication, and this brings me to one of my strengths in communication, which is in non-verbal communication. Non-verbal communication is further categorized in many forms, such as posture, gestures, body language and my forte facial expression.
