communication:

i think it's funny how in most casual conversation instances people interact much the way deaf people do. in sign language everything is simplified into expression and necessary parts of the sentence. it's very much a 'cut the crap' way of communicating. and you're true emotion and intent is conveyed without you even realizing it. you have to be really good at lying to lie to a deaf person, they're observant. i wish more people were like that, or at least acknowledged that they were like that. since we are so prominent in word use people often ignore, or pretend not to notice body language and emotion. gah. i want to take more sign language classes, but i don't have the time in my schedule, i'll figure out a way.

i may not say much, but i am listening.
