There is theory and then there is practice. What you think or the meaning that you make from what others think and express is different from what will actually come into being when you start doing or putting form on that thought.

DetailsWhen I was training to become a sign language interpreter one of the concepts that really struck me was the fact that to interpret you have separate the meaning from the words used so that you can put the meaning back out in another language.
