Complexity of human psyche

 The psyche can be defined as the totality of the human mind, conscious and unconscious. The three main elements of the psyche are 

# Identity - which forms your instincts 

# Ego - which culminates in reality 

# Super ego- Which questions us on morality and condemns our improper conduct. 

HERE THE MAIN QUESTION REMAINS, 

# What is the difference between mind and brain 🧠 

#what exactly is responsible for our decisionsπŸ€” , and who decides whether they were right or wrong-  

We have come across comparison and struggle between brain and heart ( but that is a different story altogether). On one hand, the brain is a structural part of our body and so is the heart, but what is the mind?

According to me, the mind is located somewhere in the brain where the conscious and the subconscious meet.

Few people we come across follow their hearts. A few others, the practical types are led by their heads.

The remaining few are forever confused πŸ˜•.  They try to follow their minds, doing what is practical as well as acceptable. 

Still, they are always in a dilemma regarding their decisions. 

Take for eg. You are shopping πŸ› ☺ online. You find a great dress at a wonderfully discounted price. You may feel you've got plenty of dresses, and you don't need anymore,  then maybe the fit won't go with your body type and even the colour is not so great 😏 etc. Basically 'n' number of reasons for not buying it. Finally, when after a few hours you look up again, it's no longer available!!! 🀯You sit down to sulk.

Waaoww! Was it the brain, the heart or the mind or the trio collectively that conspired to not let you buy it and which of it, now is sulking over it?

Let's try another eg. 

Say, for instance,  you are young, vivacious and happy 😊 a guy who has been a great friend throughout comes up to propose. You think of so many things before you give the final answer. He is good at heart, understanding,  very interesting too, just a little impulsive and then you think πŸ€” maybe this isn't the right time for getting into a relationship.  Why spoil the friendship etc. You tell him that you are not ready for it.  So far so good πŸ‘ 😌 . You are satisfied till he is not seeing anyone else. The day he gets committed,  you start regretting it.  You keep eyeing the couple and reprimand yourself as being impulsive too. 

Now whom to blame, 

the brain - with all its practicality 

the heart - with all its emotion and sensitivity 

Or the mind - if at all it was involved too 

God knows !! It's all so puzzling. Whatever we do it only adds to the mess 

Had you bought the dress, you could have repented thinking πŸ€” you didn't need it.

Had you said yes to your friend, maybe things wouldn't have been as you expected them to be.

The human psyche is complicated πŸ˜•
