My Thoughts on Thinking

Author's Note- This is not really an essay. Read the title. It's just my thoughts on thoughts. How cool, I know. I don't even know if this could be considered an opinion. It's mostly me wondering about how the brain works. I do trail into the topic of dreams, but it relates to thinking. It's short and I was tired. Don't think anything of this, and criticism isn't necessary. Don't even review if you don't want to. Read this if you wish. Enjoy, or don't. Don't review unless it's helpful. Really think before you review. I don't care if you leave a meaningless review, good or bad though. I'm rambling. Just getting the point across…I didn't write this for you. Me putting this up is a privilege, not a right. Just letting you know, the same with my school crap. Yes, I'm aware that this author's note is the same length, if not longer than, the following non-essay.

I don't hear my thoughts. I don't understand how people hear their thoughts. Thoughts do not make sound, therefore do not vibrate the eardrum—hence not being able to hear my thoughts. I asked three people if they hear their thoughts, two did…the other one agreed with me.

When I think, I feel it. Sometimes I'll think of something and I can't find the words to say it—because I don't generally think with words. Sometimes, however, it's like somebody is typing what I should say on one of those teleprompters and I'm just reading it off. I see the teleprompter, although I don't really.

I'm not quite sure if it's normal to feel thoughts…or if I'm supposed to hear thoughts. I don't understand how somebody hears thoughts. Also, when it comes to dreams, we don't really see dreams. Or anything along those lines.

I asked some people in my school if they hear their thoughts, one said yes and the other said no…once again. The one who said no said that it wasn't defined. I know what he meant. The one who said yes, well she couldn't really explain it. I guess nobody will ever know if people hear their thoughts, or are supposed to hear their thoughts.

Technically nobody hears their thoughts, but it doesn't mean they don't imagine that they do.
