Scientists have got a great debate about a topic. The topic is like not given much attention by normal people. But, it's a matter of great concern. The differentiated lives of left-handed and right-handed people.  10% of the world population is blessed with left-handedness.  There's a myth that the life span of left-handed people is short. When the reason is asked for this, people say that most of the accessories of our daily requirements are designed as per right-hand. But is this true? Some of the right-handed people also have short life span. That doesn't mean that the accessory was meant for left-handed people!  Medical research has consistently shown that the brains of left- and right-handers are wired differently, noting that while the parts of the brain that control motor, language and spatial processing skills are used differently, they appear anatomically the same. Some of the famous left handers: 1. Leonardo da Vinci  He made the beautiful painting of the famous M

Have you ever thought that why and how we think? I know that's not a catchy question, but genuinely, why we think and how do we do that? While thinking, we are alerting our brains' neurotransmitters, to run quickly from a presynaptic neuron to a postsynaptic neuron. It's a fact that when you are deep thinking about something, billions of synapse work in a uniform manner, to get to the root of what you're thinking.  Now, the question is why do we think? That's having a simple answer you must have known. Humans think because they want to grow. Without thinking, we cannot interpret, predict or even feel about the surrounding world. We often have heard a phrase - " Sorry,   I just did it without thinking.  " Indeed, it's an irony. Our brain cannot do anything without our thinking process.  We often think when there's a dilemma. In a dilemma, we are confused that which case would be best. So, we think about the case. But overthinking can cau

They don't think about other people and just aim to get wealth. For humans to be called homo sapiens, they should extended their mitt for the aid of others too.  A true human being is one, who help others in any circumstances. Even if one have got only 10% as whole, they should donate at least 4% of it. Not in any incumbrance, but in a sense of cordiality.  So, now you got the true prospect of humanity and humans? Remember that, Humanity at the ce
