Dyslexia
I just found out that I am not dyslexic. According to my trusty Webster's World Dictionary, Dyslexia is an "impairment of reading ability." Why rummage through a book instead of just simply ask your phone, you might ask? In short, because you learn much more by doing it the old fashion way. While flipping through the pages looking for your target word, it is inevitable that other words will interest you, and also, You'll find find the correct spellings of words you are familiar with. A little caveat, an interesting fact to add, you will increase your vocabulary. By definition according to old Webster, the definition of Dyslexia is "Impairment of Reading Ability." Strangely not word about writing. Is it possible to write and not know how to read? Im asking? Obviously Reading and Writing are a team. It's impossible to be only able to do one of them without the other. I thought that Dyslexia was some kind of inability to understand problems of other difficulties, more generic in nature and not limited to just reading, but not according to Webster.
Personally, I had self diagnosed having dyslexia, which if you're reading this, it's obvious I can read and write. The first problem I thought was at times I see things backwards and also though more rarely, I will write words in error. It doesn't happen often thank God, but when it does it is frustrating. The other condition I attributed to dyslexia is of a geographical nature. Give you an example. If you were to blindfold me and take no further than a mile away from my house, in my own neighborhood, I would have difficulty finding it. Not surprisely, the struggles with being lost with your GPS not reapondind. Danger danger Will Robinson! Hackers are low lifes and arrogant fools. Generally speaking of course..
