Thought I would try describing one of my therapy visualizations. I pretty much think in pictures, so visualization is more natural than speech for me. Since I was near adolescence before I overcame my speech defect enough to talk on a regular basis, I sometimes think of words as my second language. Sensory input is my first language and translating that into words is far more challenging than translating one word language to another word language. My speech defect still plays in often enough that sensory inputs are still vital to my communication skills.

Here goes the attempt:

This morning finds me trying to visualize a weaving loom. I am weaving a tapestry. Each of the individuals in the current four generations of family dramas has a thread of their own. Even the toddler, the semi-vegetative mother and others who cannot speak for themselves. The thread spools are not well-regulated. Each spool spurts out its bit of thread at the speed of its own, individual life, twining its own thread as the fibers of information become available for the twining. I leave each thread gently looped on a hook or pin on the loom until a slack in the thread tells me the spool has sent a new issue of thread.

How am I doing? Does it make sense? Feedback welcome.
