Discussion Question #3

Discussion Question #3

        My initial thought was I would be lost if I lost the voice in my head because after reading the question I thought to myself, " Why in the hell would I want to lose the voice in my head that dictates my logical thinking and the way I interpret concepts?" I was puzzled and intrigued by the question but I didn't have an answer so I decided to look up Jill Taylor and what she thought about it. So I found her Ted Talk and watched it. She goes in to explain how she lost her voice in her head and why she lost it. She had a hemorrhage the size of a golf ball in the left side of her brain. This left her left side of the brain (the side that does all the thinking and making concepts out of actions) completely mute. So while her left brain is mute she was able to let her right side of the brain take over. This lead her to the complete nourishment of all the energy around her. She explains it as Euphoria and Nirvana. She was LOST deep in the beauty of the world and as she talks you can feel her love and emotion just through the way she speaks. After listening to this enlightened woman talk about her experience I have altered my thought process. I would choose to live in the Nirvana world she invites me into at the end of her speech.
