some raw things


There are times during the week where I would just break down. Not knowing what there is left to do, id sit down by the pond in a park like I am now and just watch the water glistening and flowing. 
When you’ve thought all there is to think and you’ve spoken all there is to speak sometimes the best u can do is just sit and listen and feel 
And just let it out. It’s okay to feel like this. 
It’s okay to not want to speak to anyone for a month straight 
It’s okay to feel as if you aren’t doing enough. Because to suppress such thoughts would be ignoring your instinct. And nothing is as suffocating as that feels 

Times like these help me to reset. To start from square one. To reconsider what it is that you value after thinking about having nothing 

And most times it may feel like you are never enough or that you have to be riding this train called time , constantly being pushed to the next thing 
But you don’t. Because to not feel life as it is in the moment is worse than missing that deadline. 
Because if you don’t feel, you are in some ways ignorant of what it is you’re doing here. 
You are not a robot or a machine that can spew out information or retain everything you hear. You are not some perfect being that achieves everything beyond imaginable. You are more than that. You are human, you have the ability to feel freely and control your moments. You are allowed to have waves of emotion and color and experiences. You are allowed to go through things and to allow room for wandering and suffering and the constant cycle between them. Because you will never come back to the same exact moment like a gear in a machine if you think of everything single experience as new and worth learning from. If you think about it you will never EVER be in the same circumstance or situation as you are right now.

It’s these moments of sadness that make me most at peace 
Cause I see things for how it truly is 
No sugar coating or hyped up optimism 
Nobody is any better at this. We all face our own unique circumstances

on empathy & kindness

 i've learnt so much about empathy and kindness and love these past few months  i always expected another person to show love for me,  before i can give it to them.  and if they did show love from the start, i always thought there wasnt a reason to. that they were just desperate, or being crazy, irrational.  but if we all think like that, no one will ever take a step forward  (luckily not everyone is like this, and we can heal eachother) i ran away from people that showed me love but i also never gave people that love either  we should be kind to people, as they are  without expecting reward or praise or something back from them.  if they are willing to accept that, then good if not, then such energies should be attributed elsewhere (you can't pour tea into a close pot) if they return that love, we should accept it and not question it (when someone opens the door for us, do we question why they're doing it? no) no matter how bad his bad habit...

arguing

I'm just so sick of arguing with people It's not a good feeling when you are both yelling at each other to prove a point And to be quite honest, its not worth it I used to gain so much joy from these things Thinking it was discussion and evolving or something Maybe intellectually we were getting somewhere But spiritually, emotionally, it was all degrading Speaking over each other Making the other person feel uncomfortable Experiencing that first hand and realizing that you never ever Want to make the other person feel the way that you did. When things come from the intention of empathy and mutual love, This is when things actually grow Not when you’re creating walls of opinions But when you connect through shared differences And acknowledgement of this diversity This is where true evolution happens

theories on brain localization

There are three major theories on how the brain is organized, in terms of its structure and function. Phrenology was proposed by Gall in the late 18th century who thought it was possible to determine character traits by examining the external bumps on the head. All behavior/mental function was assigned a location in the brain, and using more or less of these regions determined these bumps. The aggregate field view was raised by Flourens (1920s) using experimental evidence that showed that all areas are important for each mental function. So any part can perform all functions and there was no localization. Cellular connectionism (supported by Hughlings Jackson, Wernicke, Sherrington, Ramon y Cajal) states that individual neurons are signalling units that are arranged in groups, each having a particular function.
