What I find most intriguing is, not the heart nor soul. It is the human mind, not brain. The mind is what is used to think and to generate opinions and ideas or interpretations whereas the human brain is just a physical shell to contain other stimuli for the mind. Now, the human mind gives us a lot of interpretations. Everywhere we go, whatever we see, whatever we hear or say, the mind interprates. It's constantly interprating until the day we die. For exapmle, whenever we see something which the mind interprates as a red colour, we say that it IS red in colour. Now, can we be sure that in actual life, in reality it is actually red in colour? Possibly, it couldd be translucent or any other colours in the world. It is just how the mind interprates it. Maybe things we are seeing are different from what others are seeing, it's just that we are interprating the same information! Maybe what I'm actually looking at is a blue screen, and you are looking at a white one, but we both interprate it as a light blue colour. Our interpretation is similar. So, what we see may not be what it is in reality. How sure ccan one be that what he or she is seeing is exactly the same with what the person opposite the road is seeing? None. 

What are you seeing now?
What is your mind interprating?

Now,I also think that the mind interprates whatever the mind interprates. My meaning is this: Let’s say the mind interprates the colour seen as the colour purple. To send this message to the mouth telling others that this is a purple colour, the mind still has to interprate the message, to interprate the characteristics of the colour purple to be sent to the mouth, enabling it to further describe its colour.

What are you interprating?
