So, I have forgotten how stupid most people are. Let me clarify that just a little. I wouldn't want to insult anyone's intelligence though. If I were to write an entry in my blog explaining an abstract thought that might be difficult to grasp, what would I do to make it a little easier to understand? I would use a metaphor. That's right. A literary device that would bring the point into everday accessible life that the average reader would pick up on more quickly.
