The Contradiction Of The Body & Mind: Should You Be Adventurous Or Intentional?

<hr>

Generally, we live in a world where we need to constantly improvise, blend, change, twist and unfurl in other to align to some particular standards to achieve acceptance. Acceptance is everything in life. Typically, we're built as social animals, we thrive on interaction and interdependence but then somehow, the social environment of a person can alert this to some particular extent.

 I was a very feeble child growing up in a dysfunctional family, I was bright, I had opinions and ideas of my own, but the environment I grew up in never encouraged that freedom of expression. The society exhibited multiple expression thereby drowning the individual person from showing their own unique creative expression. I learned to be independent of facing multiple shut outs and rejection. There was a rewiring from who I was supposed to be. So as a kid, I allowed too many factors shape my individuality.


<hr>



#### Repellent Of Sense Of Control


<hr>


Most time, a lot of people find it difficult to control the energy that's coursing through them like a *chakra*. This is because they're tethered to unnecessary things; emotions, feelings, people, ideologies and so many more. It's difficult to be disciplined in a world that offers so many untested choices, so many alternatives that are attractive on the surface, making it difficult for us to create our own unique desires that would complement the core self we totally embody. 

Our biology sometimes can betray us. The human body is built with its own mind. While our own mind bridges the gap between logic and reason, sometimes our body acts differently from what our mind envisages making it difficult for people to be intentional in **thoughts** and **actions**.


<hr>


Because we're surrounded by many instruments of change, we as the vessel are often attracted to the things that shines brightest. Irrespective of the fact that we understand that *not all that glitter is gold* most times we try to control sense of attraction but to no avail and this is because our biology frequently contradicts our core beliefs.

 Generally, our curiosity is both **curse** and **blessing,** sometimes inquisitiveness brings interests which results into attraction that might be *rightly* or *wrongly* placed. Sometimes we understand life lessons, we have heard different teaching from different people about how harsh the reality of life is and how we should be intentional with our existence. But then, attraction to so many shiny things makes people want to experience **the good**, **the bad** and **the ugly** side of life in order to satiate their curiosity

#### Time: An Illusion Of Adventure


<hr>

Needless to say, *the beliefs* of most people towards time is an illusion. Sometimes we look at the years we might live in life, and it creates a false illusion of adventure, **mistakes**, **lessons** and **experiences**. The only problem is that a lot of people don't reckon with unforeseen circumstances. Some people only makes the mistakes, they fail to learn the lessons and that's because they didn't live so long to actually do so. 

While life can be long, it can be very short as well depending on the angle we look at it from. I know that time is one of important factor that plays a key role in determining who become including other things. However, how long or short our lives are doesn't mean we cannot attain direction and intention. Like I said, so many things works against us in achieving this goal and one of them is the **biological rewiring** we tend to attain or reach as we grow older


<hr>


#### Direction; The Ultimate Goal


<hr>

I am overly glad of the life I lead as a child despite the fact that it was pruned and clipped, and I never get to showcase the expression that might have made me a different person. However, I do not regret anything. The life we lead might not be as bad, if we had the abilities to look at the different ways our life can equally turn out. However, it's essential we clip our sense of attraction to suit things be good and favorable for our lives. 

The height of accomplishment lies in the attainment of fulfillment. So many people generally came across things, people, career, journey which would be suitable to them at an earlier stage of their life, but because of the sense of adventure that comes with being young and invigorated they lost out on things that could have given them direction and intent. This is the many ways people attract bad energy, bad experience, they're open like a path, never definitive.

This is a thriving topic in the field of psychology. It is what fuels the work around some forms of therapy... Acknowledging that the body could have a mind of it's own, usually referred to as the "subconscious".


This is a beautiful rendition @josediccus

Thank you for the comment, while I'm more of the "human experience" kind of psychologist. I tend to think that the subconscious is vast and the myriad of knowledge that is associated with it can be really wide.  The body of course has its own mind and it's proven in how we often tend to contradict our own reasoning.

Well, I know what you mean when you say the body has its own mind. As a doctor, I like to think of it as the Autonomic nervous system. And the reason we contradict our own reason is because of deeply ingrained thoughts that we are sometimes unaware of. 

I Have a friend that would only react to strenuous events after 2 or 3 weeks. I mean she would just start crying for no reason. She would find that she was reacting to something that happened 3 weeks ago after she sits down and does some self reflection. And that is just one of the many stories.

There has been a lot of debate on whether the body has a mind or not. It's the mind-body dualism theory. 
It's been on for a long time, and I still don't know which side to pitch my tent.

@jossediccus I love this topic, because sometimes when I see my son so authentic, so different with his own ideas and I see him exposed in a world where thinking differently is difficult, then I think as a mother what should I do so that he can have his own criteria and know how to defend it and not be affected by public opinion, I think that is the real challenge.

The great leaders and dreamers have managed to be so because they have been able to defend their ideals.

thank you for this wonderful topic

However, I do not regret anything. The life we lead might not be as bad, if we had the abilities to look at the different ways our life can equally turn out.

I don't regret many things either, but I have less problems in looking at the way I live back then, the reason is because I don't look too deep on how things were back then, this makes me have a loss or memory of how they look like then, instead of trying to remember, I just look to the future.

Well looking to the future is great. For me, making reference to the past is a constant reminder of who I am, it keeps me tethered to a particular conviction.

I think control is the hardest thing to get because we weren't made to some extent to have full control of ourselves, even though we have choice, there are so many odds against us.

This is oddly specific. However, the fact that we're open to multiple choices is the proof of how colourful life can get. It's still depends on us to "thin the herd" irrespective of how challenging it might be.
