deep thoughts....
when i was a child, i used to think language never mattered because it was only what people used to communicate, and because I could pick-up any language i wanted quickly and relatively easily....it never hit me that i was relatively gifted in this, adn was bale to see things beyond others in a foreign country because of this ability....but now....
this blog was meant to be a semi-iintellecutal analysis of my surrounds and lessons..instead it is changing to my normal inner, deep-ish ramblings....
guess not much changes when everything else does....
anyways, back to the point, i thinks this ability had given me a skewed vision of the world-- i thought that language would not set0up serious barriers, or that it would really change a persons mind, but what i am learning is, even in a country with the "race=centered" identity as much as SK (which, granted is needed after what these people have been though, and is changing as the society-culture needs to now...) learning another or new language really does change a persons' mind, even the ones who dont want it. whats more, even these peopls emotional beings are changed in a manner that the emoitons change based on the language spoken (the emotions either fititng the langauge spoken, or more adaptive(healthy?) style, the person merges between the two cultures....now here is the question: WHAT IF IT IS THREE? What happens to the person's brain, emotions, inner being/ what happens??? I have learnt three languages (a little more outside of the countries) well, and now all i find is my semi self-hurting inability to speak the latest one...or belief that i cant keep all three in my head fluently as I use to do...interesting, eh?
i have a feeling that i could be a pshychologist faovrite study sometimes....
too many experiences, too little time,,,,too many changing headaches, perhaps?
cares and peace and true wish for love between all beings...
