The Language of the Gaze ESP/ENG
A look says more than a thousand words; actions are always more conclusive than words. Humans are living beings who speak a lot through our gaze, and I don't mean where we look, but how we look. For us, using our eyes is not just an action of scanning the environment; it is almost the primary medium through which we make a statement to our surroundings.
Una mirada dice más que mil palabras; las acciones son siempre más concluyentes que las palabras. Los humanos somos seres vivos que hablamos mucho con la mirada, y no me refiero a dónde vemos, sino a cómo vemos. Usar los ojos para nosotros no es solamente una acción de escaneo del entorno; es casi el medio primario por el cual damos una declaración a nuestro entorno.

The gaze is extremely enigmatic, deep, and direct. When I met my partner, I knew I wanted to be with her because of how we looked at each other; what I saw, and what I suppose she could see in me, cannot be explained quickly—at least not as fast as one can speak. I think that to be awake, you must have an awake gaze; setting aside the obvious, I refer to being attentive to your look and the looks surrounding you.
La mirada es sumamente enigmática, profunda y directa. Cuando conocí a mi compañera, supe que quería estar con ella por cómo nos miramos; eso que vi, y que supongo que ella pudo ver en mí, no se puede explicar con rapidez, no con la misma rapidez con la que uno puede hablar. Pienso que para estar despierto debes tener tu mirada despierta; apartando obviedades, me refiero al hecho de estar atento a tu mirada y a las miradas que te rodean.

Seeing is not just about directing your gaze; seeing is also about everything that your gaze involves and that you are not seeing. The main thing you cannot see with your own gaze is yourself; we have to use a tool to see our reflection, but the perception of seeing must be expanded to observe that part of us which projects outward.
Ver no solo se trata de dirigir tu mirada; ver también se trata de todo aquello que involucra tu mirada y que no estás viendo. Lo principal que no puedes ver con tu mirada eres tú; tenemos que usar una herramienta para poder ver nuestro reflejo, pero se debe expandir la percepción de ver para observar aquello nuestro que sale hacia afuera.
