A Twilight Thought

Look at the sky. No, not the sky on the horizon. Look up, look at the sky above your head.

So high, unreachable. And they are. You can be right in the middle of the Earth's atmosphere and you still can't touch the sky. Because the sky isn't real. It's just an illusion your brain makes. The sky is waves, long and short, and reflecting the sun's colour. Or so I heard. Your brain catches one short wave and that wave just happens to reflect the colour blue. That's why the sky is blue. In reality the sky is not blue. There isn't even any skies to begin with.

Think about it that way.

Your brain is what lets you see the blue in the sky. Your brain lets you see those white and grey fluffy things called clouds as whales, mermaids, cows, cheetahs, or even the back of a gigantic flying bird. Those stuff aren't real. They are merely illusions of your brain.

Think about the long, sharp, tinted equipment people use to write on paper. People call them pen. How do you know that it's a pen? Because it has been introduced to you before. You probably have used it before. You might even collecting some. The memory stored in your brain; the image, the feel, the experience of using one. Imagine if your brain malfunctioned. Your eyes can still see those things called pens but you will no longer be able to acknowledge it. You don't know what it is, you don't know what it is for, you don't know how to use it, you don't even know what's that thing doing in front of you. You see, but you don't translate the long, pointed, tinted equipment. Jesus, you might don't even know what does "long" means, let alone "equipment".

The brain is the strangest and strongest organ in your body. In our body. You might want to consider to call it even stronger than the heart because heart keeps your body alive but without your brain you can do nothing. The brain controls what you do, what you think, what you say, how you feel, how you touch, how you smell, how you move, how you live. If the brain is dead, you might still be able to see or hear or smell something but you wouldn't have a slightest idea of what it is because the brain translates everything around you, correlates them with a memory, thus resulting in the 'aha!' moment when you realise what you're smelling is actually a grilled cheese or that song you heard in the distance is Carly Rae Jepsen's I Really Like You or the movie you accidentally saw the trailer was Frozen Fever trailer.

Now, knowing that you are considerably useless without your brain, think about this: the brain is the strongest organ in your body, and you can also make the strongest out of yourself with the help of your brain. You can be faster, quicker, smarter, wittier, cooler, hotter, geniuser, player, sober, refrigerater, I'm just making up words that ends with -er. The key is to make your brain works for you, or if you like it smoother, with you. Your brain might be the strongest organ but your mind is weak. Your mind will likely give up before you actually reach your limit. So make your brain works for you, your mind works for you, and you will likely achieve anything you want. You want to date Jennifer Lawrence? Go ahead. Make yourself believe that you can and when you go into the fields full of bloodbathing boys and girls who also have the same goal as you, join the party. Kill people - NOT literally. Kick left, punch right. Go for Jennifer. Go for those beautiful curvy ten hamburger a day eating legs. DO NOT ever think midfight "nah fuck it man i'm gonna die" because you know what's going to happen next? You'll die. Believe that you can before you start, believe that you can on progress, know that you can when you kiss Jennifer Lawrence and pass that kiss among us the common people who can only admire her nose. But seriously though, her nose is perfection.

Now you got it. Your brain is amazing and so are you. Make your brain works for you, with you, and you can achieve anything you want. The world is nothing but illusion. The illusion of negativity that tries to bring you down. Work with your brain, believe that you are capable, get rid of negativity. Be awesome.

The brain is the strangest, strongest organ in your body. In our body. Without it, we're practically not alive.

But then again so is the absence of ice creams.
