ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE THOUGHTLESS MIND




I love exploring the human psyche...Some people consider it like
unlocking a door, some compare it to reading a book.I personally
disagree with the key lock theory...it wouldmean that each person needs adifferent key...the book theory i can identify with...different books have different content, different styles and languages. But I personally feel that understanding a human mind is like picking a lock. Each lock is slightly different but the principles are the same. And its better to practice with your own lock, er, mind. Learn to pick one lock and u have taken ur first step towards picking others(or towards a life of crime whichever may be the case). Understanding C++ is the basis to learning computer programming. Similarly understandyourself and you'll be surprised at how easy it is to understand others. Its also surprising how many people , though they may claim tounderstand others have surprisingly little knowledge about themselves.

Understanding urself is also very important for other obviousreasons. There are numerous, varied and complex factors affecting the human thinking proccess yet once things fall into place we realise that it all takes place according to a certain pattern. Is there any weakness greater than not knowing ur own strengths? Is there any strenght greater than knowing ur own weaknesses? I should think not. But knowing ones tendencies is not always a pleasant task..often knowledge can tend to shock u...no wonder they say ignorance is bliss. How does a person attain maturity...more importantly how does one know when one does? I think its when u realise that life is a neverending experience and never overestimating oneself. The human mindweb is more intricate than anything that even spiderman could weave. ITs impossible to discern all the shapes and sizes so our only hope is to detect a pattern and learn to predict. The only way to defeat ur opponent is to learn to think like him and the most important games and the most dangerous ones are the MIND GAMES.
