Left brain/Right brain

geetrue · 01-22-07, 02:21 AM

I just noticed that my left brain controls my mouse, even though I am right handed and the motion
to move the mouse is in my right hand, right?

But yet the thought to control my mouse comes from my left brain, while in the same moment (unction)
my right brain is doing the creating (the deciding what to say or write).

Can anyone shed some light on this or am I so slow that I can tell where
my thoughts, even though not always the right ones, come from?

Your right. The left side of the brain usually controls the right hand.
Your vision is processed at the back of your brain as well.

No one can tell where in the brain their thoughts come from through senseing where they are thinking.
Before medical science there where theories about where thinking happened that did not involve the brain at all!

Just turn the mouse around so that the left button is on your right and the right button is on your left and everything will straighten itself out.

If that doesn't work, try turning around 180 degrees so that the mouse is in back of you.

I have often found that switching the mouse to the other pocket ...ur a ...hand some times makes me want to be more Liberal in my posting. It brings on a sense of complete give and take "you give I take".

That was a very informative article Avon Lady ... http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070121/...in_altruism_dc

At the end of the article was this little unknown fact:

Quote:

"And, a religious explanation would have considerable difficulty explaining why some animals help others of their species at significant cost or danger to themselves."

I saw a flock of sparrows protecting one of their own one time ... I was driving through a parking lot on the edge of a wooded area when all of a sudden I had to brake for a small sparrow that had damaged it's wing, but before I could go any further two sparrows jumped in front of my truck. One facing me and the other one facing in the other direction, with the injured sparrow in the middle flopping around.

They were acting like crossing guards or something ... Chirping and jumping up and down to warn me not to come any closer. Finally the little injured sparrow flopped over far enough to the side that the two sparrows protecting their friends retreat moved on off and I drove on.

Proving to me that all things are truly spiritual.

Here's another one for you. True as I'm sitting here .. a bird got 'winged' by a cat in the garden; the cat was about to move in to maul it when suddenly, the cat was attacked by half a dozen birds that swooped on it until the cat had to retreat away and the bird recovered and flew up and rejoined the group, Spiritual ? I'm an atheist but it does make you :hmm: ?!

PS Ditto to an earlier thread, I am also right handed but use my left hand for the mouse .. oh .. and ironing !

It's very spiritual in the way that is shows natures beautiful way of reacting to its self.

The more we understand nature, the more beautiful it is.
How much more beautiful the stars are now that we know the huge distances the spread across and millions of possibilities the hold!

However, it is not spiritual in any "mystical" way that can not be understood.
