Heading home on the train last night I sat down next to what seemed to be two couples, say in their mid sixties or so. Each couple sitting across from one another and from their attire seemed to be coming back from an afternoon hike in the mountains.

But what stuck me as odd was the intensity of their conversation, the heated debate, and the hilarious jokes told, maybe recalling a funny moment on the hike or at lunch that day. But honestly I have no idea what they were talking about and not because of my Japanese skill level, but because they used no words and communicated only in sign language.

Every day we talk, but do we ever really say anything?
