when everything gets fuzzy and overwhelming:


Don't suffer from questioning about what it is we are actually doing on this earth and how things just 'happen'. Think of this curiosity as a beautiful thing. There are so many pieces to this puzzle that you can find along the way. The bigger picture can be intimidating sometimes. But you can't look at the disassembled puzzle and give up or feel shit because not everything is in the place from the start. You have the time. You can solve these things step by step, truly experiencing every realization that life has to offer. And I feel that what you could find out while solving these things is that there is something more than the mere satisfaction of completion beyond that finish line. Maybe you'll see that there is no such thing as a finish line, there's no such thing as everything being ‘over’. Everything might just be transformed and strangely connected. Don’t attach yourself so much to what you do or do not have. Let it flow. Embrace that flow despite emotional conflict.

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.
