in this space
I truly feel like my body is moving
before my mind is aware of it

as if i am
some sort of
automatic organism

unable to freely control

towards eachother

the law of gravitational attraction

a moving unity of people
places and organisms and animals
and beings
and things

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 bra...

all of this wondering

pent-up angst

  lately haven't been giving off the brightest energy  something toxic gets to the best of me  can't see anyone in a positive light  or care enough to distinguish wrong from right  luckily ive grown fond of my inner self  and patient enough to listen to her  give enough silence to calm the chaos  reflect on the angst, smooth it out  give it time and you shall see, underneath all the fog  re-center and gain clarity  breathe it all out, don't thrash about  face it all internally
