fool in the rain...

this might be long...I'm not sure....I had a lot to say a minute ago.

so,

I've been reading about limbic resonance.  fascinating.  it is our ability to share emotional states with another.

so...somebody walks into the room...and you pick up on their mood...be it happy...or angry...

I read...it is like...let's say, a violin string vibrates...and strings next to it vibrate as well...resonating with the played string.


it's the way...panic can spread quickly through a large crowd of people...

and it's the way....we can experience love....and we can also, have a feeling...of not liking someone the second you meet them...these 'gut' instincts....seem to be attributed to limbic resonance...

feelings...leap...between brains....and you can share what another human is feeling....share emotional states..and their emotions...start to change yours.

limbic regulation deals with becoming synced up with another...or several others in the way that heartbeats....sleep patterns....as humans, it is important to be surrounded by others to help regulate our own systems, neurochemistry....etc.  we are social beings and actually need others to help keep our balance and regulate our limbic system.

what is fascinating is this part about limbic revision....that one's heart changes the other...one's mind changes the other....a give and take between partners...in that your limbic system is not a closed circuit one...

nope.  it gets revised by people around you.   who we are....depends on who we love.  we are impacted by our limbic surroundings.  being in a relationship with an awesomely happy person...is good stuff....good for you....and good for them.  :)  because you can both feed off each other's awesome.


that's right....and being with someone who is negative...no matter how hard you try to stay positive...will start to drain you.


being with someone who is an asshole...that's not so much fun.  people who have mismatched chemistry can drive each other crazy...a miserable feedback loop...and apparently...someone who ends up being in a bad mood, gets stimulated to feel this one emotion...and basically can get stuck in a bad mood for weeks.  ugh...so.....you may start to feel this...as your own mood...or, of course, then....you have to kick some ass and try to revise their mood.  transference....


so....for your limbic sanity....resonance....regulation...and revision.... spend some time...be with someone who throws sunshine in your face... surround yourself with awesome people...and resonate happiness to other people who are having craptastic days... :)  their mood just needs revisions.  :)



when I was in junior high....I was walking my dog...and passed a few boys my age on the path....I knew them....except for one....and when I asked his name...they told me his name was Jimmy Page....well....not knowing Led Zepelin at that time....I kinda just figured...his name was Jimmy Page...and from then on....he was Jimmy Page to me whenever I saw in in the halls.....true story.

i love this one...for it's beat...and the cool latin stuff happening in the middle and all of it...it makes me smile...

Fool In the Rain...


well, there's a light in your eye that keeps shining
like a start that can't wait for the night...
I hate to think I've been blinded baby,
Why can't I see you tonight?

And the warmth of your smile starts a -burnin'
and the thrill of your touch gives me fright
and I'm shaking so much, really yearning
why don't you show up and make it all right?

yeah...it's all right...

no I will stand in the rain on the corner
I'll watch the people go shuffling downtown
another ten minutes no longer
and then I'm turning around...

the clock on the wall's moving slower,
my heart it sinks to the ground
and the storm that i thought would blow over,
clouds the light of the love that I found...

Now My body is starting to quiver
and the palms of my hands getting wet,

I've got no reason to doubt you baby,
It's all a terrible mess.

I'll run in the rain till I'm breathless,
when I'm breathless I'll run till I drop, hey...
the thoughts of a fool's kind of careless,
I'm just a fool waiting on the wrong block...

oh yeah...

light of the love that I found...



peace...and love....and being on the right block....of course...now we have cell phones and can say,

'where the hell are you?'
