| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 08/14/13 at 10:40 AM Good piece of introspection, that asks all the right questions. Excellent title...Brain Mapping...something I'm sure we all have done more than once in our lives. |

| Posted by Johnny Crimson on 08/14/13 at 06:22 PM I giggled more than a few times. Oh the little inspections we hold for ourselves. If only the published results were ever reviewed. |
| Posted by Ken Harnisch on 08/14/13 at 08:24 PM That ethereal, mysterious connection - or lack of it- between heart and mind has always intrigued me, George. You've now let me into one room that may yield some possible answers. Thank you. |
| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 08/16/13 at 04:19 AM Well questioned, George. One seems to need the other, I think. We are quite amazing creatures if we step back and realize all that we do or can do, brain and mind creating the marvels of our lives. |
| Posted by Rob Littler on 08/16/13 at 05:20 AM I think the brain is the tissue, the mind is the electrical activity sparking consciousness in that physically present tissue. The mind is the brain working. Organ is ALIVE. IT'S ALIVE! |
| Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 08/18/13 at 01:35 PM I think it is much easier to say there is no beginning and no end, and that spares us a lot of what we will never know via the usage of mind or heart or whatever other organ we employ for this task, which would be a futile endeavor at best and better to leave in question form. After all what profits a poet, to know any of this, Rather, I think we should restrict ourselves to writing such odes as give rise to questions, and leave the answers to the know it alls, who in knowing are too laden with knowledge to write a lick. The mystery lives and that is all I care to know. |
| Posted by Veronica Phoenics on 12/19/13 at 04:15 PM hmm i've also thought along those lines and have listened to my mind in quietness explain many of those things. Thanks for reminding me :) |
| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 02/04/16 at 05:21 PM Still pondering this one, George. Congrats on POTD! "thought thinks" love that phrase and where it takes me. |
| Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 02/06/16 at 12:38 PM congratulations, George. Laurels pursue thy temples to be woven thereabouts. |
