Lost in thought
I visit the Steven Hawkins forum often, many brilliant minds there, but what gets me is i cant seem to understand the math, my inner mind reflects things in like,- daydreams of the mind, I can SEE in my mind ideals and concepts, I try to explain these concepts to others on such forums but get put down for lack of knowing how to explain what i see, for many of them its impossible to put the math into visions of the mind, it has to be math for them. but what i find is what they discover is what i couldn't explain and what i get put down for because i lack the intellect to explain what i see in my mind. their concepts invigorate me once i understand them, if they line up with the visions of logic that i hold.
they make me feel dumb, yet when i see them play out what i have seen but in their words it excites me. my mind cant seem to grasp the math, but the logic of the circumstances i can, the logic of the physics i can see in my mind. and what i see is much more then then just parts, it has to encompass the whole of the theory's and realms of thought. my problem is, how can i get them to listen and think on what i can see, when they cant see it? and their too stuck-up or on them selves and self egos from education to open their minds enough to listen to what i am trying to reflect? their like, if i am not educated then why listen? when I have found my self over time more correct in vision then not?. but then again, why should I bother?
its like a flow and an ebb in my mind, cause and effect, all vision, even in reflections of time and dimensions, even with me being not vary educated in the field of physics(or much anything elce, but i can SEE it, I can SEE it!). I try to understand it all but sometimes it over whelms me, but in my mind, in my mind, i can see it all, sometimes i am wrong, but for the most part i am amazed at my own reflections being correct.
it interests me to see these things, but then again, why should i bother if no one listens? if i am so uneducated always to the point i do not matter what i see? if what i see is supposedly imposable to envision? I need serenity, it all matters not, my thoughts mean nothing. I make my living not on this, it is just a life long passing interest.
I shall pass unto dust before many of my visions are conceived, my name shall never be linked to those visions, so why should i care? its all past me.
<sigh>
who am i kidding, vision is not intellect.
Alls that matters is lost souls and love and the life we live at this time that we exist.

the insights of brilliant minds fascinate me also mutant, though I don't always completely grasp the reasoning. will have to keep taking the vitamins, hehehe...

FOR THE HORDE!
I think I know what you are talking about here, I often understand abstract concepts by visualizing them, and they are difficult for me to explain as well, and I know how frustrating that can be I think the fact that you are able to visualize these concepts shows that you have an understanding of them, and that's a great gift. What I think is that it's not that it isn't intellect, it's just another kind of intellect that in your case sounds like it's being overlooked. This reminds me of something I've often found fascinating-Einstein was working as a clerk in a patent's office when he first came up with the theory of relativity, and he came up with it in part by visualizing himself on a beam of light. And remember that famous quote of his "Imagination is more important than knowledge"
It sounds like the people you're talking to who won't listen to you tend to forget the importance of different ways of thinking and reasoning other than their own and the fact that these different ways of thinking are valid in their own right. I believe you when you say you can see them, and that's a great gift.
If you could sketch what you see (in your head) in black ink on white paper, a good mathematician can convert that to numbers in 2 dimensions, even 3 dimensions.
