Alone my mind wanders And questions arise Why are my feelings and thoughts disconnected? Does my brain need to rest so I can remember and regain The things I have learned deep within my brain. I must feel these emotions yet apply reason too. And free my mind so those thoughts can come through Keep lifelong learning in the synapses of my mind That way I will never be lagging behind.
“It is through feelings as well as through reason that we find our real creative power. It is through both that we connect with each other and create the complex, shifting worlds of human culture.” Sir Ken Robinson - 'Out of our Minds'
