from black to grey

I told myself I wouldn't cry this time
But I can't hold the tears
Passersby watching me
As I get off the train, bawling

This time it feels more real than before
Like I can truly let myself free
No more restrictions
No longer holding on to a past me

I feel more awake now
These emotions more controlled
Maybe it's an illusion
But it feels real for now

I don't mind really
I don't need to hold onto past shit
that have wilted way
Growth in opposing directions

I've always been growing
Heading towards light in some twisted way
I might have rough days
But it just.. feels right

I'd rather be true on my own
Than fake in a crowd
That's where I find security
Till I can find someway out

I keep waiting for a text
Always seeking for connection
I'm human after all
It's what we're wired to do

The disappointment that comes
from these reliances
These expectations for more
But none will be enough

I have closure now
To a past, a chapter to cclose
I might meet characters from back then
But they're no longer the main role

Before, we used to be opposite sides to a coin
But now I'm a different currency

The pain of pulling away
The liberation from binding arms
Isolation comes at a cost
The reward of authenticity

I've been running in circles
Seeking validation for my actions
But now...
it's the pure joy of trusting
And following my intuition
I know I'll be okay
That this pain all will fade
And serenity remains.

Is there an emotional brain? Pt.1(intro)

Is there an emotional brain? As much as we like simplicity in models of science, and the locationist view makes things easier for us to understand, research points to the answer that emotions are not localized to one specific brain region or circuit.  The limbic system hypothesis was put forth by Paul MacLean in the 1950s (although some theories led up to this prior such as the Papez circuit). It divides the more deeply fundamental structures with those that are thought to have developed further on in evolution, in ‘higher’ mammals. The limbic system is one component of the triune brain theory that divides the brain up into the neocortex, mammalian brain and reptilian brain. The reptilian brain is proposed to be in charge of responses for survival such as breathing and heart rate. The reptilian brain is called so due to its structures being found also in reptiles. The limbic system is thought to have developed later in evolution and is commonly thought to be the mammalian brain.

history

Sometimes I think to myself whether all of what we are searching for, will be frowned upon in the future, will be laughed at for all of our efforts As this may be some kind of crazy movement created by delusional people. But this shouldn't stunt us from the curiosities and the explorations within the world we are in now. Some beliefs in the past may seem crazy to us now... but this is just humans trying to explain the world from what they see, from the information that we have. And that is the hesitance that comes from scientists making a statement definitive. Because all of this 'truth' may not be so when future explorers look back at our work, But knowing that the reason they stand in their 'developed' position is because we did exploring for   them, into uncertain waters that are clear as ever to them in their present moment.

its like
