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

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 ...

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.

HOW TO FEEL BETTER 落ち込んでる時・ストレスしてるときは

To current me, 今の私へ、 The world is complicated and stressful. Sometimes its too much to handle and it swirls you into depression. It's so hard to find inner peace within  a world always pushing you to take quick action. この世の中は複雑である。私は特にストレスしすぐ妄想してしまう性格であるので いっつもこのストレスで落ち込んでしまいます。 この環境の中で、ある意味の「静か」「平和」を保つのが難しい。 Here are some ways I take my mind of this chaotic environment: 私はこの落ち込んだ・混乱してる頭を静かにするために様々な方法を扱っています: 1. TEA or COFFEE 紅茶・珈琲 まぁなんの飲み物でもいいんですけど、特に私は紅茶か珈琲になります。 科学的に証明されている効果もありますけど、私は紅茶や珈琲を飲むときはじっくり 味会うことができるので、すぐ頭がスローダウンします。 Any drink is okay to be honest, but I specifically love coffee and tea (both equally). There does seem to be some apparent scientifically proven benefits to these beverages but overall I like slowing down my brain with really taking in the taste of coffee or tea. So therapeutic 2. MUSIC 音楽 これも科学的効果があるといわれています。好きなジャンルや歌手を選び、ベッドの上 で目をつぶり聞くのが多いです。特にゆっくりしてる曲は心をゆっくりしてくれますね。 今好きなバンドはTAME IMPALA というバンドで、オーストラリアからのサイケデリック のロックバンドです。是非聞いて...
