There is
something special with human brain.
In this
way, it´s amazing how far the human kind can get. If we just stop to think
about the ancient civilizations, the inventions and the tech developing in our
times, we just can realize the great ability thanks to our brain. But if we
think about all the abstract thought and concepts that we can imagine, in this
moment you can realize about the real capacity of the human brain.
I remember
when I learned about molecules. In spite of human inability to see the smallest
things, we can create a model that represents the reality in a very close
exactitude. It was in the XIX century when August Kekulé proposed a model for a
molecule called benzene. He couldn´t see the molecule, just by the results of
experiments and he´s thought, he arrived to the better structure that
represents benzene. We used that structure until our days, but just a couple of
years we could got a real image of structures that contains this benzene rings.
Guess what: It is just like Kekulé thought! It´s amazing!
So, if we
can just stop and think, and imagine about even the things that we can´t see,
we will see it!
There is
many things and concepts that we still use it, created by philosophers and
scientists, even when are passed thousands years. Our ability to communicate
each other through a precise language is just a simple example of that.
The human
brain still have the ability to surprise us positively, and create and imagine
for a better world!
