I have a secret… …I’m not a verbal processor.
voice is heard.”
It’s funny. Even as I write this it’s difficult to think of
what to say. It’s as if I have these thoughts and feelings, discernment and
intuition, but they are made up of some other s u b s t a n c e than words.
but now is not it.“
That’s like saying to me, “there’s a time to chew with your
mouth, but now you have to find some other way to be fed.”
In a world where everything is based off of language and
words, there is only so far you can go with communication. You can only go so
deep into the mind of the speaker.
Studies say 7% of communication comes through words, 38% of communication comes through
tone, and 55% of communication comes from body language.
So how does a blog, such as this
truly communicate to you, the reader, what I, the writer, am actually trying to
say?
I don’t have an answer. I’m
tempted to just start doing video blogging so you all can see and hear me, but I’m
not sure I have the technological capabilities at this point.
Several people have mentioned that
there have been many well written blogs on here. Thank you for the compliments.
But I am still not sure I’ve been able to express much of what goes on in my
head.
This whole concept of
internal/external processing seems to encompass my whole life. Work,
relationships, entertainment. A supervisor asks what I think of such and such.
No words come to mind. I think I have an understanding of how such and such
went, but to verbalize it is like asking me to play music with a chair (I don’t
know what that’s supposed to mean). My best friend Cindy asks me “what are you
thinking?” all the time. A lot of times I say “nothing,” or “I don’t know.” I
just don’t know how to get it out in words.
So what is the point to all of
this?
“I don’t know.”
A great desire is to seek
understanding, knowledge and wisdom. But also to share that understanding,
knowledge and wisdom with others.
Do you think you are able to
communicate to others what it is your crazy mind is stirring up?
Thanks for reading.
