Lost in Translation

Seeing, Hearing, Feeling

Recommended Posts

I sometimes hear things that are not there. By "not there" I mean not in the physical world, or at least not obviously so. For example, yesterday I was sitting at my PC and I heard my wife call to me from the kitchen. She yelled "I need your help!". Concerned, I spun around in my chair and yelled "On my way!" as I began to rise. It was then that my wife, who had been sitting quietly at her PC just behind me yelled "What the f**k!?! Who are you talking to?". It was then that I realized there had been no one yelling. This kind of thing happens to me every few months. It's not common but neither is it uncommon.

 

Has anyone else had this kind of experience?

Yeah, I've been there and done that.  I didn't know then but it was time for some empty-minded meditation.  Too much stuff in the storage cabinets.
