Which is that one organ in our body which controls that mean machine, our body? The Heart? Oui et non as the Frenchies would put it. Well, you can be put on an artificial heart that can pump, and provide blood and oxygen to the smallest possible cell. So it is not the heart then. And, oh, yes, the same logic would apply to stomach or colon, eyes or ears.
No guesses yet? Well, the only smart and correct answer belongs to the only organ capable of giving it. Yes, it is the brain. A human being can survive without any other organ which a machine can supplement/supplant. Never the brain though! The moment it stops functioning, the brain dead person is persona non grata!
These days, however, this fragile-most organ is the most under stress and wear-n-tear. Hence the need of a day like July 22 which is devotedly dedicated to the brain.
It is a very complex, truly delicate, and much preserved organ. It is the mother board, while the heart and types can be the apps or the soft disk, necessary but not inevitable. Hence the need to protect, preserve and pacify the brain.
We all know the culprits who threaten the Brain Dear. Yes, the major most enemy number one is stress, and the artificial placebos heaped on to relieve it, be it, the drinks, the drugs or adrenaline pumping dangers!
Avoid all these like the poison because they are the poison. There are any number of simple exercises that help maintain the health of the brain, the most important, essential organ for a human being. My favourite most antidote to brain harassment is humour. And, yours?
Pratima@Brain, Brain, Oh, Dear Brain/ let nothing nor anyone push you down the drain!
