does the individual exist? do stored ideas and memories provide us with a false sense of self and separateness?
if you could excise specific parts of your brain, or add to it, would you? which direction would you choose? i am tempted to become a blissful vegetable, tripping out on the happier brain chemicals until i expire. in reality, given the choice i would probably go the other way and become an emotionless processor of information, losing my sense of self to become one with entirety.

Those are all interesting questions, very existential. Ever notice how some people constantly inflict intangible riddles and musings on themselves and others? They get lost in the intrigue and mystery of it all, and become analytical nightmares. Mind you, I'm not talking about your average inquirer or developing youth, I'm talking about people who think everything exists in the abstract and nothing is certain. They answer questions with questions. They philosophize in a way that doesn't stimulate the brain but only confuses and frustrates it. Those types of people, I tell ya, they drive me nuts. :D
