Non Verbal Communication - Nothing Else to Say!




Being a dancer and writer means I spend a great deal of time NOT talking. I also learned through my daughter's illness that sometimes there just ARE no words! I think people really talk too much. I think a lot of that is to keep ourselves distracted from what? from whom? maybe ourselves!

If we're always talking, we're not always BEING! I would love to take a walk with someone, but not have to talk, or drive in a car, or sit in a restaurant and NOT talk. Or not talk very much. It's certainly not that I have anything against conversation, but I really have a hard time with constant chit, chat, chit, chat, chit, chat! Going out in the street... everyone is on a cell phone, or plugged into music or talk radio. You can see two people together sitting in a restaurant... each of them talking to someone else on a cell phone.

Maybe people are afraid to be alone... alone with their thoughts... their feelings... themselves.

This blog is gonna have art... non verbal communication... can you handle it?
