Have you ever tried to get an answer to a simple question? I am trying to find an answer to why people use the 'why" word and I get complicated answers.
I know the reason to this question and I am amazed that nobody else has come to this conclusion. Using the word why is a very simple way of asking a question. It's a word that is used to get more detail answer than what was given originally. It also widens and broadens our knowledge.
In other words is a word that enables us to explore on known facts and broadens the knowledge or answer that has been given to us.
Children are not scared to ask the why word. Adults should be using the why word more often.
Without the why word, scientists, doctors, geologist, engineers, biologist, would never have made any advancements in their professions.
On a personal level when someone has done something to us we ask them why? When a man goes and shots kids in a school, we ask why?
Why is the key to unlocking the reasons to many things. When we sufficiently have got an answer to why we can then go on the next word, how?
Why is getting a better grasp and understanding on how things are.
Have you ever wondered why you cannot remember childhood memories? Scientists have put this down to childhood amnesia.
There are many theories. Childhood amnesia is one of them.
In the 1900’s Freud coined the phrase “childhood amnesia” to describe the strange phenomenon of losing childhood memories as adults. His theories are we repress our earliest childhood memories because of their disturbing sexual context.
Breaking research in 2005 led by Patricia J Bauer, an Emory University psychology professor and expert in the field of children’s cognitive development. The conclusion of the studies was that children under the age of 3 simply lack the complex neural architecture to retain memories, which became known as the “pasta theory” of memory.
“I compare memory to a colander,” Bauer said. “If you’re cooking fettucine, the pasta stays in. But if you’re cooking orzo, it goes right through the holes. The immature brain is a lot like a colander with big holes, and the little memories are like the orzo. As you get older, you’re either getting bigger pasta or a net with smaller holes.”
Another part of the problem is that early childhood memories are often unreliable. In 1991, Elizabeth Loftus, a cognitive psychologist and expert on human memory, found that many of our early memories are false.
Other research has shown that the stories that are told to us can manifest themselves as fake memories, dreams and fantasies. Do we lose many memories at 7 so we can let go of our childhood?
May 2014 We have struggled to remember our childhood memories especially before the age three. Now researchers believe they know why. The claim is that as we become older; the growth of new brain cells overwrites existing cells, erasing our early memories.
'Infantile amnesia refers to the absence of memories for events that occurred in our earliest years—most people typically don’t remember much of what happened when they were only 2 or 3 years-old,' said Katherine Akers, who led the study at the Neurobiology Laboratory at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto.
'But this doesn’t seem to be because children at this stage can’t make memories—when our daughter, for instance, was 3 years old she would enthusiastically recount in details trips to the zoo to see grandparents and so on.
'But she is now 5 and has no recollection of these events - these memories are rapidly forgotten.'
Since the hippocampus is important for memory, there have been several studies examining how new neurons might contribute to forming new memories.
The typical result is that reducing levels of neurogenesis impairs the formation of new memories. But as new neurons integrate into the hippocampus, they may also impact existing memories, the researchers believed.
In particular, as new neurons integrate they necessarily remodel hippocampal circuits, and this remodelling may lead to degradation of information (memories) stored in those circuits.
'We speculated that these high levels of hippocampal neurogenesis are essentially incompatible with stable memory storage—while infants are able to make memories, high levels of neurogenesis lead to the ‘overwriting’ of this information and forgetting.
Another approach, the brain is not just an organ but treated as a muscle. The brain can be trained to improve different cognitive functions like working memory or math skills. There is new evidence that shows that the brain can be developed and function like a muscle. The more you use it the stronger it will get.
Thus, the conclusion is that, as in physical exercise the more you challenge your brain the more you increase your neurons connections resulting in a "smarter brain" (Farrington, C. A. (2013).
Something else to ponder on and why is this, when a child cannot remember childhood memories yet a child learns more before they turn 6 years of age.
Are memories not factual but emotional feelings that tie events together? That maturity plays a big part in this. When we become older we retain memories as we can deal with the emotion aspects of those memories.
I know that depression plays a big part in how we can remember things. Depression tends to make us forgetful.
The memories that we have is a huge factor in what makes us the person we are today.
You will known when a relationship is ending before it actually does. It is the letting go and moving on that is the hardest.
You will also know when the relationship never had a chance in the first place.
Again it's the letting go and moving on that is the hardest.
People don't mourne the relationship they actually had. They mourne the relationship they could of had. The ideals that we had in the beginning just never happened. We saw and made that person in something they really weren't.
Our minds only deal with the good things and the painful memories get put into boxes in the back of our minds.
Letting go of the anger. Sit back and think about what really happened. Not just on what the other person did but what you did as well.
Acceptance is very important in this process.
Anger can be healthy to some extend. It helps us come to terms that something in the relationship is not right and it makes us face this fact. The problem will anger on a long term bases will over shadow any new relationships in the future. It's stops us moving on and we have in reality given them this power over our lives. Forgiveness is then essential to our own emotional freedom.
People don't generally go around thinking on how to hurt another person. It's in our nature to think of our own well being first. In order to forgive them we need to understand this. We need to remember before they did things what we like about them. See what happened from their perspective. See them as a real living person and try and distance yourself from what they done. Don't take it as a personal insult on your character, just accept the fact people make mistakes and people come with flaws.
When a person comes in your life and loves you. This is a gift to treasure. Love is like a plant and can only thrive when certain conditions exists. There are so many things that must be there in order to thrive and to blossom in to something so wonderful, like a plant that's blooms. With holding our love can be more damaging in the long run. Some times that love has to be enough so we let them go, though it breaks our heart. We let them go because all we want is their happiness.
Love has the capabilities of envolving. There are many different types of love other than romantic love. Let your love change. When there is true love that love will go on forever. That person you will carry around with you for internally. Memories and how they touched your live and the changes that resulted from just knowing them.
Relationship that have gone wrong can makes us doubt our own truth worth. We can begin to hate and loath ourselves. We need to be able to love ourselves in order to move on. Not everything in this life was meant to be.
Believe in yourself that you deserve someone that loves you as a whole package, the good and the bad. Whom treats you right.
Stop with the self blame. The things you could or should not have done. These changes we will never will know if they would of made a difference.
Rather take it as a learning curve. From this learn your own weakness and recognise your own strengths. Change the bad and strengthen your strong.
Growing up I had little of people believing in me.
I grew up believing that everything I did would turn into a failure.
I was a screw up and a looser.
Once in a while someone would come into my life that believed in me. Giving me a reason to carry on.
They would always leave. I knew this would happen.
If you believe in what others believe you are, you proofing them right.
My father believed there was good in everyone. When it came to his own family I doubt he thought like this. I guess when it canes to people that are closer to us, we become harsher in our expectations of them.
I believe in you
You will make mistakes
You will fail at some task
You will not forgive at times
You will feel alone at times

Today I was wondering
about human traits.As usually I looked
it up on the internet. I do know about human traits.I know there are positive and negative
traits.I also know of the conscious and
the unconscious of humans. Humans are made of many traits that are either positive
or negative.
I know there are many
traits that I have to get rid of.I know
there are many traits that I could improve on.
I also know that love it’s
closely linked to hate. A child might hate a parent because of the abuse but
secretly harboured intense love that has reversed itself. More intense hate has a great possibility of
love, when the problems have been resolved.
It seems that traits are connecting
to the consciousness and unconsciousness of the human brain.
As we go down lower into
the human consciousness, the wanting characteristics tend to appear.
Human traits can be
expressed at the physical, vital and mental levels. Mainly in one but that can
over shadows another.
Attitudes are vital, but
they have a slight mental aspect to them.Personal values and beliefs are predominantly mental but also have a
vital component in that there is a vital wilful aspect to them,
Anger, hate, intense desire,
lust, jealousy etc. are all negative vital traits, while domination, tendency
to violence is all negative physical characteristics.
If traits attached to our
consciousness is both positive and negative.We can note of them all and determine our weakness and our
strengths.In doing this we slowly
overcome the negative traits and strengthen the positive traits.Making us as grow as individuals, making us
become better people.More than likely
the quality of our lives will be much off for better for it.
Negative traits at the
physical, vital and mental level have at their root, human ego.Ego is the self-absorption and separateness
of our being that it is the very root fact that we identify with our own separate
bodies and self at the expense of others.Ego is expressed at different levels, being physical, vita and metal.Domination is an expression of the physical
ego.Hate and anger are expressions of
the vital ego that has been hurt.
Many negative human
traits are due to overriding factors.Our ignorance has its roots in the unconsciousness. Many examples of
this are stupidity, ignorance, falsehood, folly, poor decision making.
Conclusion – this is what
I have been looking for.All the words
attached to love are traits, characteristic traits.Love is emotions and yes some people are very
apt at expressing their feelings.
Love I guess is dependent
on whom we are.The more positive traits
we have, the more negative traits we get rid of.Our whole life will improve and everything in
it.
