Day 84 The Image and the FACE of a Person

So, having met some Destonians that I have known for like 9 years for some, that its like HOLY SHIT. I don't know them. Like really KNOW them. And that's how it is. Now one VERY specific and PARTICULAR point that I am going to zero in on is the image and face of a person. Now, using one person as an example, if I look at photos of their face on facebook, all of my judgment and preconceptions on WHO that person is based on how they look, how they smile, their facial structure, their eyes, EVERYTHING, is just completely and FLAT OUT WRONG. I am wrong in my assessment of who they are, based on image. So obviously the question is why then do we do this? Why do I do this? Because that goes to show you CANNOT trust the image at all to tell you who the person is. You cannot. Its not trustworthy. And that is Interesting isn't it? I mean really look at it. Because we are all the time judging based on what we see. All the time. We do it so often and so regularly that we forget ab...

You are words!

Each person actually has their own definitions of words. To make this apparent, consider how two people define the word love. What constitutes love? How do you love someone? What does someone have to do to show that they love you? Is love limited just between two people or can it include more? What is love? There is no way these two people have the same definition of the word Love. Which is why people that usually form relationships together end up fighting or being confused and miscommunicating with one another, because they have different expectations for how they partner should act and behave, and how to show that they love them, and so show the the relationship will work. But it is not just the word love, it is every word. Each person has their own definition for every word. And what is interesting is what ever the definition that you have, for all of the words... this completely and absolutely effects your perception, understanding, behavior, personality, actions, decisions in...

Being Quiet 243

Silence I can become very quiet. I can sit and listen to someone talking to me, as long as they are talking. And I can sit with them in silence. I have never done this before, but I would find it quite enjoyable. That I would live/be with someone, and we would never speak, yet we would communicate without words. Now that I went through a personal journey where I spoke and expressed me, I am looking what is required of me. Meaning that what the moment requires of me, whether it is to speak or not to speak. So to again be silent. And its simply based on what the moment requires. Its funny that I have a slight to resistance to not speaking. It's only slight. I find that I can drown my thoughts in silence. That the silence is all pervading, all consuming, a never ending dark pool of liquid. I have heard some people in my life say that to be silent, to not speak would be a torture, something that they can't do, and would lead to great stress and anxiety. I have s...
