| | I guess I make people feel dumb sometimes. Or maybe I make them feel ignorant-- something like that. I'm trying to decide how I feel about this. I think people fail to realize that this is never ever my intention; often the opposite, in fact. Obviously I need to think more before I speak. I haven't had much practice in this field. A good portion of my life was spent with such a negative belittling point of view. As my paradigms realigned my views of myself and the world, respectively, changed. I was not who I how I thought I was. I'm not sure exactly what I thought then, nor do I know currently-- this is surely part of the problem. I try my best not to compare my intellect to that of others, and this sort of causes me to insult people's intelligence, I suppose. I think I'll try harder to evaluate myself and be more respectful of other human thought patterns. I thought I was doing a good job, but apparently I can be mean, and come off as a know-it-all. This bothers me a lot, because, as mentioned, this is not my intention. I wish I could better distinguish between what people consider facts and all of my knowledge. I'm not even sure how I retain so much, and I really need to do a practice retaining and expounding information more carefully. I'm going to try to think along the lines of soup questions. I'm still not sure if this a problem with information or knowledge.. or perspective..
I mean, maybe people shouldn't take things so personally? Since I can't ask this, I'll just keep trying to figure out what my problem is in the exact, and what my modes of action should be. Sorry.
