Rebirth or renewal, however you look at it

------------------------------------------------
I've kinda set a different direction. I know it's just going to be one foot in front of the other. But I know that a mountain cannot be without first being a grain of sand.

I've also been wondering. Is conscience entirely internalized in the brain? I like to believe that we're somehow all connected as part of the universe (First Law of thermodynamics: All energy can neither be created nor destroyed). Do our bodies really hold emotional memories? There have been many instances where organ transplantation recipients have embodied certain actions and mannerisms seen in their donors even when the recipient has had no prior knowledge of the donor. I understand that brain serves as nothing more than basic cephalization for higher learning processes and maintaining homeostasis driven by chemical reactions... but where does conscience fit in all this? I wonder if it's possible to create an artificial karma. If we were to be reincarnated, what then - happens to all the pieces that make us?

Blah, regardless... I think we're all connected to each other. Man, this is such useless babble... I gotta get back to this stupid book.
