Research has linked the ability to visualize to a bewildering variety of human traits—how we experience trauma, hold grudges, and, above all, remember our lives.
This subject is always confusing for me and I’m not sure I’m not somewhere in between. I can “see images” but it’s not like watching a movie screen for me. The images aren’t… Crisp or clear or anything. And they move around (my brain only really fills in the bits and pieces I concentrate on), so parts of the image are fuzzy.
As a kid, I always lamented that images in my head wouldn’t stay still long enough for me to draw them out.
I can also just close my eyes and wee plain blackness. So it feels like neither description is one I fit into.
