Non-verbal communication has its' very own sophiscated silent symphony. This is because without a word being spoken and uttered, most of the time we are able to evaluate it correctly. A simple example is, what happens if everyone around us stops speaking and we had to only evaluate situations and act according to it depending only on movements of the person and without a word being said? Will we pull through this situation? The answer is definitely a 'YES'!
This is because daily we come across billboards, pictures as well as road signs that enable us to read it, understand it, evaluate it and act to it. On the road, for example, we are directed with signboards. There is nobody to explain to us the meaning of a direction or the destination we are heading to. Our brains automatically evaluates that messages and allows us to quickly respond to. It is indeed a very smart and brilliant form of God's creation. So this actually proves the fact that, most of the time we are unconcious that nonverbal communication is being used. It is simple unintentional! Also, when we blush, frown, smile and grin, shows non-verbal behaviour. This is because, emotions plays a huge role in contributing to this factor.
Of course, non-verbal is not always intentional. Doing it for intentionally makes it look way more ridiculous than it might seem. Pretending to not speak or using hand gestures unnecessarily, for example, is a form of intentional non-verbal communication.
The pictures above shows two little children. They look contented and happy. One is feasting to her candies and the other is happy about his gifts. Without actually doing anything, we can simply tell what the picture means. For example, the Monalisa (painting), it is being evaluated in different angles by different people. It carries many meanings. Paintings are much more complicated because painters devote alot of emotions and effort when painting. It results in a very sophisticated form of art. Unlike paintings, pictures can be easily evaluated especially when it involves an innocent little kid as kids only exhibit true emotions. There is no lie hidden on their face.
To conclude, non-verbal behaviour is a very significant on an everyday basis. It is used for everything but it must also be used in a correct manner as it will show a different meaning if it is done a wrong way.
