i talk alot with my hands. they're constantly moving, especially when i'm presenting or heading up meetings. most times i don't even know i'm doing it until i notice someone's gaze following my motions, and this slight recognition will make me check myself.
i was thinking today about where i picked up this habit, and concluded that it's another one of my dad traits. he'll be waving his hands around when he's speaking, and moreso when he's really passionate about getting his point across. i think it's natural to do this when you're trying to find the right word(s) to use.. for me, it's like physically pulling out what i want to say.
more and more, i'm realizing how much my parents are really a part of me.
