Going to work

So I'm going coming to work today and the Blue line is packed but we manage to shove inside the train car anyway. As we are riding I happen to look over my shoulder and see two women talking having a conversation. One of the women had a fan in her hand, you know the Japanese or Chinese kind that fold up, she was just playing with it while she was in concersation with the woman to her left. Then as she was talking she flipped the fan upside down and begin to use it as if it were a pen or pencil and she kind of drew on her leg as the canvas or paper. She was explaining something to the woman to the right of her or giving her some type of directions drawing lines and circling areas on her leg. I couldn't hear a word they said and I didn't need to, it was clear from the gestures that she was explaining the relationship of two different places and their distance from one another. The dope thing is that there were no lines, there was no map these women were creating something through the power of visualization so in that way the map and the pen she drew with did exist, it existed in our minds. Its incredible how humans communicate and what we can do with almost nothing. Visualization is an amazing tool because we use it to communicate ideas to our selves and others as well as create our realities. Let me know what you think.
