We are all just our brains. 
We are all just a collection of synapses. 
That’s so nice. 
Why do people not get this?
It’s such an easy concept. 
No soul. We are just a brain. The rest of our body is just there to support the brain. But we are the brain. 
The brain is more than us though. 
It fully controls us while we can only control a very small part of the brain. 
The brain can only control a small part of the brain because the brain controls the brain. 
It stores all the things that happened to us. And some things that happened to the generations before. 
And it dictates our behavior and that is what defines our future. 
We can never fully change the way we function. 
We can never erase what our brain was made of. 
And it’s just flesh. Nothing more than that. 
And one day it’s going to decay and there will be nothing left but skull.
That’s so beautiful.
