The capacity of the brain is unlimited. The corners of our minds are vastly separated from one another; the power of knowledge transcends the structural restraints that inhibit a world of possibilities. If you take a moment to step outside of yourself and realize the immeasurable power you hold, all your inferiorities will be diminished.
Have you ever considered the unusual capabilities that are sometimes exuded during times of crises, known commonly as adrenaline rushes? Un-explainable ‘powers’ take control of the body, and allow it to withstand immense pressure. The sympathetic nervous system kicks in and overrides the brain’s operating system, causing inexplicable power to dominate the body’s fight-or-flight response.
In short, the mere physicality of the genetic makeup of humans along with the complex nervous system’s ability to perceive stimuli is something to absolutely marvel about. The symbiotic relationship of the brain and the body alone is enough reason to celebrate. Every day.
This is all very definitive information. The feeling of self-actualization isn’t. It is hard to define, measure and, most importantly, hard to encompass.
It should be this simple: you are a living breathing organism capable of thinking, learning and expressing feeling; unless any of those three skills are compromised, there is no reason to dwell on temporary dissatisfaction. Everything else is trivial.
The succession of humanity is infinitely more important than the opinions of others and how they affect you. Absorb the fact that you have made it this far for reason and let your purpose permeate. Rejuvenate your mind with a conscious gratitude towards each moment that has led you to read this.
