Ive been contemplating alot about life as we know it, or as I know it lol. One of the main area's of my study has been with the mind and consciousness. I had a daunting thought about consciousness while contemplating the senses and their effects on consciousness. For example, I was wondering whether a deaf person had internal dialogue, but they've never heard they voice so they surely wouldn't have internal dialogue in the form of sound. I thought that they might have visual dialogue instead, I found a forum where the question was brought up and someone said that the see the sign language they've learned. This brought me onto blind people. If you were to ask a blind person what they see, they'll probably see they see nothing. Well try describing nothing, one would think its all blackness, but what is black, describe it to me, any colour infact, describe the colour. How can one describe hot and cold bright and dark..... without the senses what remains. I was one who believed that when the body die's consciousness is the only thing that will remain but now i'm not so sure. Any comments on this would be great because theres alot more to it but I need to be promted for questions to answer to draw out those deeper thoughts. Al
