A Thought on our Thoughts

When we are awake and conscious, our brain runs, restless, making up things in the mind. In true words, it collects knowledge from the surrounding and considering the various factors that can affect our thoughts it generates a thought. If you give a little bit of importance and the resources to the mind, it develops an idea upon the thought. A thought can be as simple as, "I want to drive.", now if you can think upon the effort that your brain goes through to generate that thought. It is not just random; you could possibly trace the occurrence of that particular thought in that moment. For that particular thought there could be a very large number of factors that have contributed to the generation of the thought in the mind.

Our brain functions very much like a computer, and we all know that a computer can only respond to some given inputs. Similarly, in the case, our brain must have picked up some input from the surrounding such that it processed out the thought. Being a very complex computer, our brain is able to process the inputs, the signals from our senses like the conscious and subconscious knowledge from the visuals, smells, tastes, feel and sounds. They together help to generate the thought in support from the memory. The thought "I want to drive" may be produced as a result to the person seeing a road or a car or a similar structure, or hearing the sound of a car or hearing something that resembles one, or the smell of his own car. There can be extremely large number of reasons. If you think upon it, you will be able to imagine the vastness of the possibility.


We are truly a magnificent creation. The various things we do and experience are all just amazing. You will believe me if you just think.
