There are many reason people think differently to one another, and I spend a fair amount of any spare time I have speculating and assessing why that is. Along the way and within my investigative nature, I discovered that my husband was Aphantasic. Meaning he does not have mental imagery annd doesn’t visualise anything in mind. And the reason we stumbled upon this revelation, was because it transpired that I over visualise. Hyperphantasia they have called it. And it was through this difference I began to unravel a huge amount of differences in perspective and attitude that went way beyond just personality and one of us being a man and one being a woman. Although i don’t doubt that plays a bit part.
But given the current social climate we find ourselves in, with very divided attitudes and beliefs, I can’t help but wonder what thought processes those people are going though. On both sides. Not just because of visualing or lack thereof, but of all the other things that affect how you make decisions and access your position in society. There is much to mull over currently, and maybe I will find my way to writing my next non fiction book.
