Wow im on a roll , its past twelve and well past my bedtime, tomorrow i have to attend work and yet i find myself restless to talk to speak to type. Its not really a conversation that im looking for but rather a discourse a vent an outlet.
Have you ever come across people who notice things that you dont. Does it never bother you that you are not seeing the world change, seeing the minute detail of the tattoo on the girls shoulder. Maybe its just where your priorities lie and how you assimilate (or choose to assimilate the life around you). I recently came across these two gentlemen. I use the term gentlemen loosely here for all that they see they make judgements on and im not even sure if thats right and i don't make this judgement on one conversation or one observation. Its just that i believe its important for people to express themselves and its equally important for others not to butt in unless required, or unless its conducive.
People will talk and they always have but what ever gave them the right to talk but similarly what gives me the right to talk here. So should i call this off.
let me just state facts and let the rest is up to you , so here goes. Recently i found two new recruits in my wagon of new joinees. Rolling down the hill of employment and uncertainty of a new job. They certainly didn't seem uncertain at all but rather confident . Maybe they have a right to it maybe they don't, but this is how it went. we were out for a cup of tea at the common tea break, and all employees mulled around . We had a conversation with a couple married in love against culture and hopefully on the surface happy together. The conversation of small talk about business in general, however as we returned to our stations both of them commented on a finding of theirs , it just so happened that they had observed this together. i mean both of them had observed it individually , and realised that they both had observed it. It was a date on the ids of the couple the girl was a year older that the guy. And they found enough reason in this fact to have a discussion about it. Now the discussion wasn't just it , the fact is i was present there i missed it, i had known the couple longer spent more time with them but i never thought of it , i would have never thought of it , i still don't check out birth dates on id cards. All i wonder here is why do i miss it while they take it in . And is it a trained activity , is it important , would i like to have that ability, would it really effect me , and whats my perspective, where do i come from on that . im not certain , im undecided on it, does seem like a superpower but im not to sure if its important enough. I think its a trained ability, but im not too sure how to get it. im not too sure whether id like to have it, if its final destiny is a comment .
What do you think about it , i just cant get my head round it , i do notice unusual things but i notice them cos im interested in them i look for them , like tattoos and nail-paints and feet and random things like that , but i don't have a fixed purpose behind it.
But isn't life also about observing and is this not a lack of it , is it important to expand you field of observation or rather attention . I know people who make use of this selective attention like magicians and illusionists but i cant quite understand what would be better to be an assimilator or to be a filter.
