OK. Here is the way that I perceived this GIF & thread to be;
The more powerful symbolic RIGHT brain of mine is admonishing the symbolically LEFT brain ego; the linear ego.
That's all...
That all pretty much nonsense you mean. Take some responsibility for your thoughts and mind for gawds sake.
That's all the GIF & thread meant to me.
Nah! You didn't know what you meant when you posted it and this is you now retrofitting it to sound deeeeeep.....
I mentioned this same scenario that I am wrestling with right-now in my philosophically lead life.
You're always struggling and wrestling with things.
Try answering these questions and you may get somewhere;
1. "What outcome do I want?"
2. "If I got this outcome what will it do for me?"
Keep going until you achieve a strong, clear response. Then;
3. "Whats stopping you?" If nothing then 5. if not then 4.
4. "What do you want instead of 3?"
Go to 2.
5. Find a good NLP therapist or life-coach to get the resources you need. Or read the books and have a go yourself or with a friend(worked for L.Ron's method).
The ego; the left brain ego; the one that is CONSTANTLY talking even when our lips aren't moving is a cruel and frightened master.
In NLP terms you prefer to use an internal voice to 'think' with. Many do. Try picturing some kind of control or switch when this happens and experience thought with it turned off. Also learn to look with your peripheral vision rather than the foveal one. Its basically learning to relax the muscles around the eyes and push ones attention to the periphery of ones vision.
I see this in you. In your posts.
You are frightened of what images & GIFs do to your simple linear posts.
No, you don't and no I'm not. Why? Because you do not understand the written word and its relationship to thought. In fact you obviously have a great problem with what thought is to mind and how language and communication relates.

Shows what you know!
As a dog owner and the father of a Downs Syndrome boy I'm annoyed at dog-owners who allow their dogs to behave in such a way and frightened that the boy will give the wrong signals and get his face torn-off. I'm also mildly annoyed at the anthropomorphic primates who read 'empathy' into such things but then such stupidity never surprises me where this primate is concerned.
Oh! And pissed-off the video maker spelt "Downs" wrong.
Images & right brain function surprisingly are exploding upon the internet and are taking over the power of the simple written word through the internet.
As individuals, I think right brain functions continue to point us to our evolutionary path.
There is no arrow of progress in Evolution nor is there a 'path'.
A couple of things with your 'path'; I have no issue with the creativity others show in this medium, I look forward to the day you actually use your 'right-brain' to create an image yourself rather than plagiarize others efforts. Unfortunately this idea you promote will lead our nations to third-class status as the other nations are not teaching their children this way, they are teaching them to use words and maths to communicate with, as you can't develop new technology with images only. Its also only the children of the proles who are told that this is a viable, in fact the viable, way to think, as the children of the rich and powerful(and even the middle-class) are also not being taught this way. Again, don't mistake me as saying that I don't admire and respect the creative and imaginative uses and the possibilities available in these mediums, its that I've actually taught the children who have been brought up this way and they find it nearly impossible to retain or follow a thought for more than five minutes, which means they cannot learn the basics needed to express themselves to others which leads to frustration and sometimes violence, which they cover with an overblown vocal assertion and assessment of their capabilities.
Thank you for inspiring me to express this.
How many times!! Your pointless platitudes do not impress me and I think you are just playing to the 'crowd'.
I hope, philosophically, my posts are providing you with some confidence and direction and answered all those questions that you had of me.
I'll leave you to guess what my reply is to this.
You appear quite lost...and I don't mean that negatively.
Of course you do you twat! Although I guess that since you don't have a clue who or what you are or what you think that you actually believe this.
