Communicating
It was hard to focus my thoughts at first. Even when a clear line of thought appeared, it was difficult to express. It finally occurred to me that my thoughts were not expressible, and trying to relate them in detail was an impossibility. I started with the base of why I needed to communicate and worked out from their. It is not helpful to try and express nuanced thoughts without the trajectory being established because one of the communicating systems is compromised. Their is no shame in reverting to what seems like childish communication, the shame would lie in excepting that what happens in your mind must stay their. It took me a long time to avail myself of others, and I now consider it time wasted. Even simple exchanges use the mechanisms of communication and offer experience to profit from.
