Empathy

Not to be mistaken with sympathy, empathy takes stride in understanding another persons emotions. Its about taking a walk in their shoes, putting yourself in the similar situations they were in. Well this is what we tell everyone when we try to get them to understand a particular event. This is the catch.....some of us may know but many tend to forget, the term 'walking in someone else's shoe' TO ME actually means further looking at the situation through the other parties eyes, considering his level of thinking and rationality. Never judge a matter through our own beliefs, because naturally we are all very different people, thoughts logically vary. So when giving advice or opinions, never wonder what we would have done, it simply isn't fair to the other party. Just try our best to see what they see, feel what they may feel and do our best in accommodating their emotions as this enormous place we call earth, doesn't revolve around our beliefs, whether we like it or not.

Full of grace

There was a couple of blogs I read a few weeks back jokingly implying God made women second to men to improvise on his prior creation. In so many ways, though its not literally true, God certainly put an extra touch on the female species. Firm yet graceful they command attention, weaken our knees and capture our hearts at just one glance. I never believed in equality between men and women, both have very distinguish capabilities. Its our differences which creates attraction to another though in some circumstances the world has evolved abruptly( another story for another day) Men are animals( sorry guys but it true in so many different ways..well maybe not all) while women have this aura around them that demands respect. Its how I view chivalry , plenty may say he has died or extinct. Well, I honestly have no idea but to me it simply means being respectful and courteous to woman in every possible way no matter who they maybe, friend, mother or lover even just a stranger. Naturally, your lover gets the extra attention because of the connection which is obviously levels higher.
Sadly , this concept has been misused by countless 'boys' so to speak just to impress a woman, and it only survives during the so call 'kao-ing' stages which I believe is so wrong but it does happen nowadays. Chivalry is not a practice, its a way of life and it also denotes, never treat a woman any lesser than how she was treated before.
Women can love like no other and to have that privilege to experience their love is a chance of a lifetime. Their caring and giving nature precedes the only grace left on earth, are all through women.Inspiring is the word. Although minds have evolved and the world has dramatically changed, the only hope I have for mankind is through the grace of women to keep men at their feet. I am just happy, I have found mine and I truly hope she knows. Finally, I tactfully pray, evolution will spare the extinction of grace left here on earth.

power of the mind

This right here is the icing on the cake...with beautiful candles lit...creamy spongy chocolate feeling..... topping my number one list of inventions. Evolution and revolutions are and will always be the result of this creation. From a neutral point of view, to those atheists, agnostics and freethinkers, whats your take on these? How was this sublime invention created? Just curious..

We are so often made to think,act, speak and simply conform to the basic challenges human's undergo. Everything you are doing right this very second are all responses from various parts of your brain.Its amazing how each and every tissue affects our reaction at the very next second......like right now. Lets forget about the common left and right brain theory , here's something relatively less popular, our limbic and cortical brain. While L and R relates to our IQ, this generates our EQ

Limbic Brain

Emotions and memory
determines experiences to be stored for the long term
powerful enough to override conscious thoughts

Cortical Brain

complex
analysis and interpretation
creativity

Emotional Hijacking - The Amygdala Factor

A very interesting theory I came about. Wonder why sometimes we regret an act we committed seconds ago, maybe going off at someone, even a sudden kiss and if anger get the best of you, it can even drive you to do things you never imagined. Some fears that we developed at childhood are the bearing of this hijacks, for example, I am dead scared of cockroaches, yeah since my toddler years if I remember well (well not really scared, more to disgusted..hehe.)

There is an escape link though, this hijack can only biologically lasts for 6 seconds. This is how it hijacks, so be aware:

1. A trigger: a catalyst that generates an impulse
2. A strong emotion (anger, fear etc.)
3. An instant, impulsive and irrational reaction that is
inappropriate to the situation (the reaction need not
be overt)
4. A subsequent feeling of regret or embarrassment

So yes, there is a biological explanation for everything bodily accept miracles of course if you believe in them or even if you are another of my favorite , House M.D, its fine as well. Avoiding the hijacking is perhaps an alternative, always be aware of when and where it can strike. Proper preventive measures will leave you in control of your emotions at periods you wish you had....exp. get out of the situation and take some time to think...

Well so much for the brain..mines getting tired..Well heres something to ponder and laugh upon. How true this one is, just depends on you....:P
