And Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni was at that moment on the verge of an exceptionally important thought, even though its final shape had yet to reveal itself. How much easier it was for Mma Ramotswe-she put things so well, so succinctly, so profoundly, and appeared to do this with such little effort. It was very different if one was a mechanic, and therefore not used to telling people-in the nicest possible way, of course-how to run their lives. Then one had to think quite hard to find just the right words that would make people sit up and say, But that is very true, Rra! Or, especially if you were Mma Ramotswe, But surely that is well known!

In the moment described, Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni is grappling with a significant thought that he struggles to articulate. He reflects on Mma Ramotswe's exceptional ability to communicate complex ideas clearly and effortlessly. Her knack for expressing thoughts in a concise and profound manner contrasts sharply with his own challenges as a mechanic, which do not typically involve guiding others in their lives.

Matekoni realizes that sharing insights in a way that resonates with others requires considerable effort and thought. Unlike Mma Ramotswe, who seems to have a natural talent for conveying her message, he understands the difficulty of crafting the perfect words to inspire reactions of acknowledgment or agreement. This highlights the unique skills involved in effective communication and the different roles people play in their interactions.
