Your brain, even if grammatically incorrect, is a truer statement than your brain. Every thought, every memory and every feeling is told through the mind. It is the hallmark of human achievement. The mind, although always thought of as a complete whole, is actually a collection of many parts that come together to make us ourselves. The parietal lobe, temporal lobe, and occipital lobe develop during adolescence. (Semrud-Clikeman, 2014) These are our basic functions such as sight, touch, and our instincts rooted in these areas. These slowly develop in our frontal lobe during adolescence. Creating who we really are. We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. (“Treasure of Truth,” 1996) This was as true in the past as it is now. There seems to always be that one person in the office who says they know how to do everything in the office and does it all, wrong! Maybe their frontal lobe never developed properly! All these parts communicate via synapses. (Chudler, 1996) They are like little electrical impulses that push our thoughts around. The brain is often divided into two parts: left and right. The left is logic, mathematics and a talent for languages. The right side is more inclined to ideas, dreams and music. We are all left-handed or right-handed, so it is logical (left-brained) to think that we are dominated by one side of the brain or the other. Many people will tell you that they are left-brained or right-brained because they are drawn more to drawing and art than math and science, but is that really the case? First let's talk about the left side of the brain. The Spock within us is often ignored when it's time... middle of paper... Doux, J. (2002). Synaptic self: How our brain becomes who we are.
