About thinking
One day a friend said to me, "Ive already asked you this in my head." I asked if I had answered and he said I had. I do this too, and sometimes have whole conversations with people just by myself. Why do we do this? Is it rehearsal or an attempt to be prepared? Or is it just fun?
In a similar but different vein, someone I know thinks in pictures only. If you say to him "dog", he pictures a dog. He sees thousands of pictures each day, it is his thinking process. If you were to say to me "dog", I have a general concept of a dog and often think textually. I can mock up a pic, but it isn't an immediate reaction. How do you think?
