I figured out a long time ago that I actually mostly Think in analogies, or assimilate things by making analogies from past experiences.

Interesting.

Can thinking in analogies be illustrated in words that do not define an analogy.

@yvilletom never even looked at it like that....will think on it!

@annewimsey500 I too will think on it. Hypothesis: Thinking requires an actor and an act.

A newborn child exists. Actor. No action.
The child feels hunger. Actor. No action.
The child cries. Is thinking required?

Where am I hoping to go?
