Noosphere
Teilhard is the father of the noosphere. Noosphere is the "sphere of human thought." It is an anology for atmostphere and biosphere. Noosphere is anything mental. When I say it is mental it does not just mean that it is a thought. It could be a way that humans and animals communicate. In my earlier blog about Cleaveland's 7 Characteristics I mentioned that animals communicate by some form in-order to warn each other of danger or simply to tell where a food source is. Humans do similar communicating. For example, if a friend gives someone directions to where they are or where you are trying to get to they are using a "mental picture" by describing how to get to the destination.

Your post was on the right track-- you just needed more content and an insight (i.e.: "I agreed/ disagreed... A connection was made when I read..., etc.) Also, nice picture.
