Our Skillful Skulls

It’s rather hard to imagine our lives without our
minds, for I seriously doubt we could imagine anything. We
would probably resemble all those mindless creepy creatures
in us we need to nourish everyday; but since we realize we
need them to exist, we shouldn’t mind.
However, I still don’t mind saying that a mind without
an imagination will always remain a creepy thing...for
without our imagination, we wouldn’t know what to do with
the knowledge in our minds. Our minds and imaginations, when
co-operating, make a very highly efficient and exceptional
team – we blazon forth with an assortment of splendid,
flashy, and magnificent speculative notions. Without them,
we would never be capable of relishing the delight of a
stroll in a warm summer rain, relaxing on a mesa or the
desert contemplating a beautiful sunset, snoring in a forest
under the stars, watching the clouds roll by, noticing your
tire is flat, nor any of the other wonders of life – and we
surely couldn’t imagine what the hell this is all about.
If we consumed more of our time exercising our minds
and imaginations, there’s no imagining what we could imagine
to accomplish with them. We could practice by imagining that
politicians were honest, we won the lottery, the IRS sends
us a refund instead of an audit notice, or that our blind
date is perfect. But just imagine if we had the imagination
of a child. When a child is playing with an imaginary
friend, we imagine the child’s friend is imaginary – but in
the child’s mind, his imaginary friend is not imaginary,
it’s real! It’s real because we live our lives in our minds.
Our biological mind is an ultra-elaborate, and
magnificent conglomeration of genetic engineering. It
embodies all types of neat stuff – nerve cells, synapses,
glia, neurotransmitters, cortex, occipital lobe, thalamus,
hippo campus, amygdala, and all enclosed by the cerebral
cortex – of course; it has an abundance of other compact and
tidy systems. It goes about its duty 24 hours a day,
everyday, for every second of our lives. As with our other
parts, it needs to be exercised. And how do we do that? This
is the really great part – it’s easy!
We learn! It’s like a sponge; it has all this
tremendous capacity and monstrous capabilities. It wants to
soak up knowledge constantly, and show off what it can do.
We need to read, play, write, word puzzles, figures, walk,
run, think, tell good jokes, see, hear, taste, smell touch,
be aware, eat healthy food, increase our morals, observe,
learn new skills, talk, sing, orate, instruct, make
decisions, and as you know, we could go on for months.
Another amazing aspect of our mind is when we relax and
read, write (or whatever), and concentrate on what we are
doing. The mind engages our imagination automatically –and
when they work in tandem, we not only absorb and retain more
data, we become more creative...for the imagination and mind
search all the information in our data banks, and play with
it. So, as we can see, the more data in our storage vault,
the more creative we can be. Using deductive logic; the more
we learn, the more creative we are, the more opportunities
we will have, the more money we could earn, the better our
attitude, the more interesting we are to be with and
converse with, the more capable we will be to help others –
plus, it will be easier to relax due to less stress, all of
which translates into more happiness...imagine that!
A magical mind (achieved through study), strengthened
with an immense imagination (achieved through regular
practice) plugged into a faultless faith (achieved through
relaxing and doing what we should), and all operating in
conjunction with a clean character (achieved by having
morals and principles), and encased in a single anatomy
(already achieved), is a combination that absolutely knows
no boundaries. Percentage- wise, every one of us cannot, or
ever will be, labeled as such a single living
organism...yet; just imagine what wonderful deeds we could
accomplish for ourselves and others, if we just tried to
attain that worthy goal. All we have to do is establish a,
well, goal – and go!
