"Left and Right Brain Theory": What I understand about it?

The last day's discussion in English116 was indeed impressive, compressive and hilarious. The discussant had done their part of sharing comprehensible inputs on us. What had caught most of our attention and interest was the topic, "Left and Right brain theory". As I said, the discussion had been exciting and revealing. Everyone was eager to know which side they belong.
When I was in elementary and high school, I encountered tests which will determine if where on the two groups do I belong. Actually, I surpassed three different types of tests and the results all stated that I am neutral. This means that I used both sides of the brain most of the time.That time I can't really prove to myself that it was true.
This theory of the structure and functions of the mind suggests that the two different sides of the brain control two different “modes” of thinking. It also suggests that each of us prefers one mode over the other. The left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for logic. The left hemisphere also contains the language center, interprets patterns and is detail-oriented.The left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for logic.

The left hemisphere also contains the language center, interprets patterns and is detail-oriented.The right hemisphere of the brain is responsible for emotions. The right hemisphere is spatially oriented and searches for meaning. It is also is the center controlling music, art and kinesthetic abilities.Based on the informations I had learned during the discussion and on the experiences I have, I can say that it was really both sides.

left and right brain theory

Left and Right Brain theory: A reflection
Left and Right Brain is indispensible with each, they have a distinct role to play. We use right brain to make us more creative, daydream and everything that makes us enjoy and happy but there’s an always a limitation in every happiness and that’s the role of the left brain. Left brain dictates what should be the right thing to do and dictates the things accepted by the society. How I wished that I would always used my right brain. When Ma’am Judith asked me, what brain I used to, I said right brain .Because I consider myself as a music lover, I loves to play musical instrument and that the things that make me feel bliss and I almost forget my problem. It always becomes my outlet every time I’m sad and alone.
For the past few days I had struggled in which I’m going to use, is it my right brain or my left brain. Dwight said that I need to use my brain in my decision because he does not want me to see me to commit mistakes and get hurt in the end. But my heart dictates me that I’m going to use it. It’s alright that I have committed mistakes and learned from it and bears the pain. And according to Ma’am, Judith,” no gain, no pain and no pain, no gain”. I already accepted that in every decision there’s always a consequences. What really matters it’s my own decision. And according to Ptr. Jim there’s no harm in loving as long you know your limitation .Actually, it’s a serious problem between us, I am a Trinitarian while he is a Oneness. We are also conflict in terms of salvation we believed in salvation by grace while them believes in salvation by works. How we would to reconcile in this complicated issue? .But then, I already made my decision, to continue to love him despite of all odds and differences. I know that in the right time God will be the one to make impossible things be possible.

Don't Quit

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow--
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor's cup,
And he learned too late when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out--
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

One of my classmates gave it to me during the time of my sentiments. I can't hardly believe that she was the one who made me smile that moment.She was right we should be never even the world is already against us.For the past few weeks I had totally struggled from nightmare of my past experience.I tried to hide everything by giving my smile to them.It's already been 12 years had passed after that traumatic I had experienced .I tried to move on but I can't. He still visits me in the middle of night I can't do anything with it but to cry to God. My life is a dramatic one.It's my first time to reveal this... I am just one of those millions of children who had bad experienced in their childhood. It's a good thing that they would able to share it and have the experienced the justice. But me...I just kept it and became slave of my past.I don't have the courage to voiced it out...I am weak.However in my weakness God gave me the strength to continue His gift...my Life.I know that God has a precious plan for me.

GET CLOSE WITH FEW POLITICIANS

It was once in a blue moon to have given the chance to meet our President of the Phils. and an additional bonus with Mr. Arthur Yap, Cong. Dato Arroyo, Cong. Louie Villafuerte and Gov. LRay. It seemed that I was a child again. Trying to get in with crowded people just to see them in the closer view to shake their hands, to have a pose with them, to catch their attention and to get a smile from them. ..and these were possible last March 24, 2010 at LRV Atrium. I still remember then when my mother and I saw well-known politicians like Mr. Rodolfo Biazon and James Jacob. I kept away my hold to my mother just to get closer with them and to see them. It was nice in the feelings that even somehow I met few people who are national figures and leaders in the country.
