Combustion Engine

for a part of my life, i believed that, we only use 5, maybe 10% of our brains..

in our whole lifetime, that was it.. wow i thought..
there has to be more to life than a lifetime if so much of it goes unused.
i wondered what using even 25% would get me..
i always thought, for you to become super smart, you had to live in your mind in a way..
you had to constantly be thinking
either way, i found out, in an article in popular science it’s a myth…
human brains are usually running at full throttle.
that conjures images of a jet engine to me and a captain stalling for time, saying
 if you look out the window, that thing burns god knows how many gallons of fuel a second..
behemoth is the word i learned for it..
anyway, so i had to imagine the human mind like a jet engine now..
something i wrote of great meaning to me, of the possibilities i’d imagined in myself.. quite possibly might not be plausible.

take a point. on yourself. it is easiest to start at a fingertip. then travel out. as far as you can. without looking up. the hardest is to get past our planet’s atmosphere. then you can place planets stars solar systems galaxies where ever you might like. and when you do inevitably come to an end. of the six percent of you(you are). you will know where you are.
so i don’t like to cede that i might be wrong on this.. i would like to think it proves the scientists wrong.
the point to me is, what does reading all this, if you do, whenever you wake up, do to you?
i suppose i should have asked permission before trying to influence someone with my silly words, but then i might not see the change.

heh, sometimes i feel like a dinosaur.
i have met no more of me around.
