When you close your eyes, only the eyelids are shut. The actual eye is still opened. It's just like putting a curtain in front of you. Is it the inside of the "curtain" that we actually see? It's definitely not darkness that we see. What do are your thoughts on this?

Most of the time it is spots of lights coming in getting smaller and smaller and then disappearing.. Sometimes thought I get like a movie screen and I can watch as something appears, I see like images of some bit of life somewhere being lived, people moving about or some area.... stuff I never recognize, but I consider way cool, and I try to just watch for as long as it is there. I hate it when it finally fades. I don't know exactly what it is or why it is happening, sometimes I think I may get to see something important so I really pay attention to detail, really weird and I really never told anyone before, so there you go......

If there's enough light wherever you are, you'll see light filtered through your eyelids. You'll never "see" the insides of your eyelids for the very good reasons that either a) its too dark. Afterall, if your curtains cut out all the light, you don't see the curtains b) it is impossible to focus on something as close as your eyelids, hence, even when its bright, all we see is blurry light, or blurry eyelids, take your pick.

optical illusions. I see images, recurring flashbacks of the past events and people. Not only these, I also see spatial presence of events, people that will come my way in the future-meaning my ambitions and wantings.. About half an hour of this flashbacks and flashforwards, then gradually fall into deep and tranquil sleep lol.. and wait.. as late as 8pm.

This is one proof that ideas are eternal, they exist with or without the impression of matter at the point and time when they are thought about.

umm.. talking biologically... you see the inside of your eyelids. If you're in a lit place, you will see slightly red, and maybe sparkled colors (specially if you just pressed the globe)... the red color is simply because of the light going through the skin & muscle. (Try putting yout hands over your eyes in a clear and well lit place, and you will see darker)

Now... my own "explanation".... we see our insides XD. maybe our... thoughts manifesting themselves in some other way ( ? )


Oh.. but we must remember... we see with our minds, not with our eyes...

It depends on what type of snogging it is. If i'm really into it, then i close my eyes, if its just a little peck then i keep my eyes open, or just partially closed.

well i knew that, and in the sun i see red when i close my eyes, because since the eyelids are thin you get to see your skin in the light.

When I close my eyes I see swirling colors. The brightness of those colors is dependent on how bright the surrounding light is.

Thought is what i see, the eyes don't really see. It's a running program.
