"Self" as a Rube Goldberg slapped together intricate conglomeration

"To be alive is to marvel — at least occasionally, at least with glimmers of some deep intuitive wonderment — at the Rube Goldberg machine of chance and choice that makes us who we are as we half-stride, half-stumble down the improbable paths that lead us back to ourselves. " 
How can communication happen at all, when "I", one conglomeration of experiences and reactions and history and interpretations and parent tapes and influences, try to convey a message to you, a while different conglomeration? 
      Answer: Communication can happen when we try, then check, then correct, then try some more.
