32.

Navigating through life requires balancing emotion and reason, a feat accomplished by the brain region 'area 32' of the anterior cingulate cortex. The area maintains emotional equilibrium by relaying information between cognitive and emotional brain regions, according to new research. (1)

Looking at Area 32. Trying to balance the Moon and the Sun.

So sad.

Trying to explain tears without tears.

So comical.

Trying to reason with laughter. No, the heart cannot explain the brain. And that is why it cries silently. No, the brain cannot know the heart. And that is why it cries out in agony.

Is there any better reason to love? Than your inability to do so? Is there any reason to long for the Sun? Than your tears in the cold night?

Exchange of information. A cosmos in motion. The last place you could find balance is where the balance is.

Try to think of nothing.

Try to understand Area 32.

Does that make the balance go away?
