Our emotions cloud how we view what happens, and obviously we don’t always remember things exactly as they happened. Sometimes the demise of relationships come down to recall. It is a network of regions that work together to process and make sense of the world we live in. Which brings us to the limbic system, which is the major network in our brains when it comes to mood. If we’re upset or sad that can sometimes be to our advantage.
They’re actually thought to have been among the first to develop in the human species. The regions of the brain fundamental to mood are actually buried deep in the most primordial parts of the brain. Which was that in actuality we were already upset and then took it out on someone else, overstepping the boundary of circumspection. But that’s the story we stick to.īecause that’s easier for us to accept than what really happened. Our labyrinthine thought patterns wound the whole thing into something it wasn’t. It’s easier to swallow that way.Īnd later, when the memory comes back to us, it became them instead of us at fault. And afterwards we feel bad, but our pride gets in the way and we blame them for the whole thing. Maybe we have an argument with a loved one. It eases our conscience.īut if we’re completely honest and look back over the entirety of our day, that eruption was building from the moment we opened the desired ceramic and accidentally broke it. We kind of feel bad about getting so upset, but maybe we tell ourselves they deserved the dressing down. That person has no idea what’s gone on before. So later that evening, during a discussion with someone, we inexplicably detonate.
