Guest guest Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Hi Debi, Now let's see if this will be confusing ok; I'm curious; and especially online that you hadn't met me so that means as I say, it gives an impression vs. if I say it in person; where then you get more info as I say; now hold on ok; hold on your seat cause you might fall off; a few years back I kept winning in speeches in toast masters… uh? I shaken me head this can't be; but this is what happen… As difficulty I have with conversation; I was able to give a winning speech… When given a task, I would have a whole week, I would rock as I do anyways; and as I rock I fantasize the scenes that I'm going to speak, Then after a while I capture each scene in sequence and there was no problem for memorizing because I could see the seen as I talk to the group; and when the next seen appear in my mind I was on the next thing to say… I never taken notes, I just had a whole week to fantasies – then what I had is motion which I'm so animated as it is; and I act out my speech as I spoke, There was 3 parts of the speech as was explain to me, and this came in really handy; to have the ending as the beginning and the middle is to describe; Before giving the speech I would practice my speech in my mind as it's me speaking – I saw myself speaking it and I had a timer; as I knew I had so much time… I won the first speech, the second speech and the third and then I quit… Why did I quit for? It was taking its toll on me – still I couldn't even speak in a conversation yet I could give a speech; I thought this is the most bizarre thing… I kept hearing from them, where's your notes; and I would say I have none… From this I shake my head in confusion more than anything else, I even won over a lawyer, as he gave his speech., and I wanted to cry out will someone here help me talk in a conversation where one doesn't have a week to prepare? But I fail to even talk in having a conversation with them… It was as if the same thing, I rarely speak, I avoid speaking to them, but have me give a speech. suddenly They were in my visual world as if in a true fantasy, how I fantasize… Another thing I notice that confuses me is I joke – without warning, a thought will appear and I'll say it and have people around me laugh – this often happens when I'm around my neighbors; I joke as its spit out of me, without out knowing if it's appropriate or not, but when I see them laugh, and their thoughts of they enjoy me – I feel this sense of another kind of vale, instead of silence I'll be a comedian… When you spoke you talk more when you're nerviest – I too – which here this is where I wonder if this will be very confusing; once I start talking it's as if I'm in that speech mode; where I won – there's only one problem – I didn't fantasize it for a week in getting it so polished that then my manic tongue becomes a tornado out of control dizzying anyone comprehension to complete lost and I see it on their faces and then I get worse, cause I think I need to clarify – and it gets worse and worse where am as if my mouth is like a rain storm, causing complete chaos – but these people are trap – they're aren't nothing like my nephews who would just walk away; no these people want to be nice so they stay, and I want to be nice to and I'm trying; I'm trying to help them out of their misery as their misery is their confusion – it's as if we're both causing each other's prison locking each other in some kind of hold; my panic and there pain as they're toss in this rain storm tornado chaos, that's not at all gentle but rough, yet I'm lock in it as well., not knowing how to set myself nor them free and they're lock in it to they don't know how to set us free either, so we spin, as my words that flies out of my mouth uglier it even more… The art of communication is so lop sided; and this toast master only confused me; ok so I can give a speech then why can't I have a conversation… Then there's moments my words are so brilliant as I capture some depth and with no preparation either, it's as if it falling into unity where the person who's listening to me, is in a trance of some info they never heard before… The problem with this is the expectation then from them that I will be consistence; and I'm not… It just happen that it fell in unity for me, as somehow how my mind didn't dyslexic it… It's as if my own thoughts gets dyslexic with my words; it's as if my thoughts aren't in unity with my words; but once in a while they are; and I've been analyzing why that is – is it that it just happen that I had time – where when I don't have time, I then don't have the capabilities to talk? Oh you were saying – wouldn't we make a pair; actually I think we might be talking each other's ears off, if I have time – the other way that might of happen is if you talk a lot, I be feeling at ease too – I think I too, have felt uneasy with someone who won't talk to me – but it seems these kind of people can talk just fine in a conversation it's that they have this personality of not wanting to talk; wait now I know what I'm trying to say; they're more statement people they speak in statements; and never in descriptions; see for me I'm a very descriptive person, and to think in statements is painful for me and that's when I either am a mess when I talk or I try to avoid it or if I don't have to speak in statements I speak in such depth; So in actuality; maybe we both be motor mouths – cause neither of us be in statements; its this statements that I crumble and then when a person expects a statement in return; Does this make sense? it storming so bad; lights are flickering; I wrote this in my word prosessor use spell checker and all; but normally i would spend time after pasting it here to re-read it; but i'll just send it now; just in case the electrisity is cutt off.. Hope > > > When you say slow in information processing – I too feel this way; that's why I avoid being in a verbal conversation – I look as if I'm more a listener but its me avoiding talking… > > > > When I attended my mom's retired party I hardly said a word; actually my only sentence I said as I sat at the table where others were – I said, as I felt embarrassed I said, " I don't talk much..
