We are all so unique, yet not at all.


No, we will never be able to completely understand eachother’s thoughts. We are such unique beings, a result of our circumstances and more. Everything we have ever experienced, everything we have ever created has led us to this point.

Becoming stagnant is comfortable. It is safe. But I feel like we are on this earth to learn more and explore unexplored territories. There is so much we do not know. Of the world and of each other. There is so much each of us is capable of, on our own and through cooperation. Each person has so much to contribute to, we are all part of one giant body, contributing our strengths and giving our own insights from our analysis of the world and our circumstances.

Life is so beautiful. There is ofcourse things that make it seem otherwise in the moment. Things that you may view as bad may occur to you in your life. But the beauty within that, is that this response is so flexible. We humans are able to twist our minds and play around with it through our sense of self-awareness. We can completely change and manipulate our response to events, we are able to stand back and look at the broader picture if we just put our headspace in the right frequency. Each individual may be going on our own paths, our own wave. But these waves interweave, some can cancel eachother out, others can amplify those waves. We can create beautiful things, forms of expression, evidence of an attempt to understand. We can share these thoughts in various forms, we can bounce off of each other’s journey like atoms floating through the air, rapidly in waves of change. Such impacts may not always be obvious. It can be a kind word, or a work of graffiti. It can be through an act of service, or through a brief conversation. It can be as little as a question spoken out loud, or as big as political movements. No matter what, we matter so much to this huge web of evolution and no being is more important than the other. We are all a part of it.

departure

Maybe its meant to be The passing of time Seems to let us free Makes us more carefree Farewell to a friend Hoping for the best That in some other world This journey won't end But long paved roads Take hours to walk down A dragging trip Complacence is found If we can refresh The origin of our motives Healthy company In each other, we'll notice.

Is there an emotional brain? (arguments against)

The limbic system has been commonly referred to in scientific literature as the emotional brain. But we know now with more information and advanced technologies that the limbic system is an ambiguous concept, it is what LeDoux says is just a “useful anatomical shorthand”. One evidence that challenges this theory is that areas that are considered unique to mammals (therefore termed the “mammalian brain”) is also present in ‘primitive’ creatures such as reptiles and amphibians. For example, a study conducted by Gilles Laurent and colleagues in 2018 using single cell RNA-sequencing technology showed that the neurons of the pallium of reptiles had similar genetic makeup to that of the hippocampus and amygdala of mouse and humans! These areas are what MacLean included in the limbic system theory, yet they are present in these ‘lower’ animals. Moreover, the same study showed that the anterior dorsal cortex of the pallium in reptiles was similar to the human neocortex, which is a layer ...

no holidays

i used to think of holidays as this getaway period of time when the world would let me take a break from everything. But really, its never like that. We never really get away from it.  This can’t be taken purely negatively or positively. It’s just the reality.  We can take our breaks and let our bodies rest, but the things in life never really stop.  Perhaps creating a daily ritual and habit, a consistency in activity, that doesn’t require escape is the most ideal option.  Life does not purely consist of the programs that external influences put on us. They’re merely there to keep us on track.  So even on ‘holiday times’, its important to keep a steady pace and rhythmicity to what you are doing, every day aligning with your goals. Do not let the world command when your break is. You decide that for yourself.  Ofcourse you can have vacations, and days off when you reset and rethink about the core of what it is that you are doing. But these mo...
