Comment on Left Brain, Right Brain Inside Out by R.E. Finch

The comments are appreciated. Recently, I began looking at human communication as a basis for civilization. The development of the human ability to connect with other humans in ways no other beings (to our knowledge)could was required before something as complex as “civilization” might have been attempted.

A key point for me, as a communicator, is that humans differ in their level of dependence on the two sides of the brain. I’m trying to come up with ways to put that fact to use in creating new means for humans to craft messages that are understandable - and understood - by broader, diverse audiences.

I’m still stewing on it, and frankly haven’t made much progress since originally posting this. But I still know that the means will come to me. Patience is my friend.

The New York Times Sunday Newspaper on May 25 had a great two page article on Jill Bolte Taylor and her book, “MY STROKE OF INSIGHT”. Her book is a must read and this NY Times article - called “A Superhighway to bliss” is worth checking out too.

Thank you for that. Jill Bolte Taylor’s My Stroke of Insight is one of the most incredible stories I’ve heard in a long time. Her TEDTalk video blew my mind wide open to new possibilities. On the one hand, there’s what she went through and how she emerged from it. On the other hand, there’s what she can teach all of us.
I saw the 4 part Oprah interview on Oprah dot com Soul Series and I did learn a lot from that, but I’d like to find our more of how to do what Dr. Taylor did, without having a stroke of course!
Thin how many of us are living too much in the head, and not the heart. And of course, you can’t get more left brain than a Harvard Brain Scientist. Isn’t it ironic that she should be the one to have the stroke and transform from the quintessential left brainer into this “”seen the light”" disciple of finding inner peace?
I hope this movement keeps going. Maybe there will be My Stroke of Insight classes where we can practice what Jill Bolte Taylor is preaching.

I read “My Stroke of Insight” in one sitting - I couldn’t put it down. I laughed. I cried. It was a fantastic book (I heard it’s a NYTimes Bestseller and I can see why!), but I also think it will be the start of a new, transformative Movement! No one wants to have a stroke as Jill Bolte Taylor did, but her experience can teach us all how to live better lives. Her TED.com speech was one of the most incredibly moving, stimulating, wonderful videos I’ve ever seen. Her Oprah Soul Series interviews were fascinating. They should make a movie of her life so everyone sees it. This is the Real Deal and gives me hope for humanity.

Comment on I’m not one for conspiracy theories…usually by R.E. Finch

Considering “Brad” got here via a link to this blog from “American Bloggers 4 Inclusive Debates” posted on his own blog, his commentary might be ironic. The reason I say “might be” is that he didn’t argue a cogent point. His comment was about as effective as a drive-by shooting with an empty water pistol.

We are left to wonder about his arguments behind his lobbed insult.

It reads as if he was having a conversation with himself and decided to shared with us a few seconds of it…the part where he passed judgment.

That’s typical for a moonbat -leftwinger; tolerance and intolerance mean the same thing.

And with that you’ve officially lost the right to ever call anyone a “moonbat.” That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.
