Re: Beyond visual understanding
by Li Sam
I recognize what you are saying Shelly, even though I haven’t got any background education at all. However, there are many ways to learn, like there are many books. Some books express the same understanding and support each other, but there can be books telling a quite different story. Our society rely on books and the printed word as the truth and in one way I wonder if that could be the wrapper you are talking about. By that I don’t mean that books are wrong, I think it’s just a matter of sorting things out, like what is applicable in various situations. When I struggled with my Gender Dysphoria, I already from start felt that there was something else, like a piece in a puzzle missing. Things just didn’t add up regardless of books, internet or what people and professionals told me. So there was a crack in my wrapper sort of speak and that helped me to stay alive, but I needed to change gender in order to do that and learn about myself, as the previous me was just a character society had forced upon me. That something else, that piece of a puzzle, has turned out to be much bigger than the puzzle itself and I can refer to it as the soul. One thing I wonder and have thought about is to do a series of this something else, like exploring the unknown, the soul, and make use of the blog format to do that. Would that be interesting?
