The Mind

[pookin]

So I have been thinking about the mind lately. It's quite an amazing thing. What do you think the most amazing thing about it is?

I think it's ability to forgive/forget for some sort of happiness is the most fascinating thing. Its so strong it can defy logic and even your own personality.

So whats you?

the way that we feel things. not happiness or sadness or anger, because those are just labels. the true real feelings behind each one that can never be duplicated & is real & as shocking each time.

The mind and feelings is an amazing thing. What is even more amazing thing about it is every feeling you have is never truly the same, your mind always tries to compare it to something before, and if their wasn't a before the new feeling can completely take over you.

There are no such things as "feelings".
Wtf are you all talking about?
Oh btw, I'm just trying to be your friend.
But I can't compete with everyone else.

stop being a bitch rofl

I can be a fucking bitch if I fucking please.
Cause that's my "FEELING" atm.

There is such things as feelings, but it is just a thought that effect more then your mind but also your body. So to say they don't exist is the same as saying we are thoughtless.

You aren't trying, you are my friend, but I do not know when I apparently had a competition with you all.

I really don't require anything from you or anyone to be my friend. I know you might not feel the same way, that your friends should do something and I might not meet that requirement sometime, but its not that I am not your friend. It's just who I am sometimes.

And stop comparing your self to Ryan, that would be like me trying to compare myself to Marcelino. Because after him you are probably the 2nd person I exert the most time and energy on.

the most amazing thing? i'd say the one where you can just block the most hurtful/painful memories.

then again, maybe it's just me. i got a shitty memory for the last couple of years.

i'm sure there are more reasons for me, but i really can't think of them right now.

[mbem]

IM A SHITTY MEMORY!?
FUCK YOU SPIC, NIGGA WANNABE

I would also say it has to be one of our most natural abilities. Since the mind really only fears pain and death in whatever shape they come in, but its still something to behold.

[lux_et_umbra]

Its ability to learn.

[pookin]

I dunno if I could consider that the most amazing feature of the brain. It is sort of the purpose of the mind and what it does throughout life. Tho you could tie everything the brain does into the umbrella of learning, learning how to deal with emotions.

You always make me think.
