It would be just short of a miracle if you would.
According to Mental Statistics Institute this title is the second most frequently generated human thought.
The first one I will not publish due to possible e-thought police repercussions.
a) any language is just a rather awkward tool to transform thoughts into words
b) using this primitive tool to express feelings is bordering to ridiculous
c) most messages you try to convey can be interpreted in numerous very different ways (due to Murphy’s Law usually the most stupid interpretation gets through)
d) spoken or written expressions of thoughts or feelings are the major source of misunderstandings
The whole idea how to exchange at least some of the sparks emanating in our neurons, by blowing air through appropriately constricted vocal cords, has been obviously born a little left of stupid.
And later invention of symbols that we can put on a stone, paper or computer screens has been even better.
So much about the evolution.
Due to this incredible achievements we are now absolutely capable of confusing our friends; business partners go berserk when we are expressing ourselves; we are able to order a pizza with extra pepperonis (and get who knows what); we can get pissed off like mad dogs when struggling through some artfully constructed paperwork, that not even lesser Gods would understand; we are able to send declaration of war without bothering to leave our armchair… Fabulous!
Well, I hope you are not mad because of some of my outbursts. Maybe you just got them wrong…:) And I am in no possible manner responsible for the level of understanding you are capable of.
What should we do to prevent negative reactions? Be silent? No writing? Hiding our thoughts? We would be considered really well adapted and wise persons.
Until there comes a time when we are fed up and open our mouth or touch the keyboard…:)
A better idea.
We don our scuba gear and submerge down below.
No words. Not even expectation of words. Your mind is not waiting for words down there.
Mind opens into its primeval mode.
Just an unconditional immersion and you know all.
You simply know.

ReplyDeleteActually I do not understand anything but I am responsible for that, not for what anybody says... :)
ReplyDeleteI like a quote I read while ago: "Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience." (Mark Twain)
It's better to go on and let them stay with their thoughts. It will pass.
"No words. Not even expectation of words." "You simply know"
Thanks, Ket! Yes, I do :)
