I learned something about myself. I always kinda suspected it, but now I have made the transfer from that idea or image that you have never thought in solid words to something real. I am an artist. I do not buy paints and put them on canvas...I do not take classes to tell me how to create...I just create. I take things, pens, items, anything that it around and apply them to somethin to create a look of what I see. Art is to speak to that part of you that don't understand words. It is to speak from that wordless inner being to the inner part of others. Mayhbe that is too much into it. It is expesion. It cannot be taught, except by learning from life. There are many things like that. Words are a manor of expression...but words are often not up to the task of expression what we feel. By feel, I don't talk about emotion, I am taking about thinking without words. Like you do when you have that addrenilen rush of emergency. The time between input and reaction is so low, that even words in thoughts would be formed to slow. You just act. Sometime people say that is is acting without thinking, I think they are wrong. It is acting without dulling thoughts with words. Without examining them against todays society...it is thinking faster than you can remember. If we ever are to truly communicate, we must do so on that unrestained level...that primal concept. So much is lost putting an idea into words. Ever had an idea that you don't know how to explain? (Like the problem I thionk I am having now?) You know it, you understand it. You know it has no flaw, but you can't find the words to expesss it with the clarity you feel. That is waht I am talking about. what if you could express that idea to someone in an instant, and they would undertand it as you do. Image the posiblities....human kind would perhaps turn from an assosiation of independant modules to a collective intelegence that spans the world....for computer dorks, it is like having a network of systems connected via 2400 baud modems trying to share new source code and programs and suddenly switching it to 100mb ethernet....Levels of understanding would vastly incease. I ramble.
