I was told one time that my boss was like a goose. He would blink and suddenly find himself in a new world that needed new rules for us to obey.
The problem was he never seemed to learn from his mistakes.
But...
It is amazing what brings a real change into a person's life. A sudden insight, something someone says, something you discover. A satori, an epiphany, something that suddenly changes the way you look at the world.
I've blinked twice in the last month, both times right here on AllDeaf. The first time because of Bottesini introducing me to the term "dysfluency" which I had never heard of before. This led me to come up with the concept of metafluency and I find myself thinking in terms of metafluency in every conversation I have.
The other was when Jillio told me she is convinced I am a "fluid thinker" a term I had never come across before.
In the past I had always paused to think about the most versatile, the most flexible, the most eclectic, look for different points of view -- Now none of those terms come to my mind. I now look for the most fluid solution, the most fluid point of view.
Now I do not see myself the same, I do not see the world the same, nor do I see other people the same as I did a month ago.
Because I happen to be on AllDeaf and interacted with these two people and they, bless them both, saw fit to interact with me.
So now you know about my blinks, I'm a happy goose.
I'm curious about yours.
What has happened in your life, here on AllDeaf or anywhere else, that caused you to blink and wake up in a whole new world?
