World Brain Day 2024

2024-07-22

Today is World Brain Day. The brain is the center of thought, the nexus of the central nervous system, the primary attachment of the spinal cord which has certain capabilities of reactive thought of it's own ... such as the 'reflex arc'.

The brain is a powerful and essential part of vertebrates enabling high order thinking skills and coordination of innumerable body processes. Some of us are more well endowed with brain power than others. I like to think I'm on the upper end of that scale in general. I personally view the accumulation of experiences as a prime mover of the intellect. Those who try and fail are much better off than those who never attempt.

The day is held under the auspices of the World Federation of Neurology. It is an organization dedicated to both neurologic and mental health as it pertains to human beings. Brain health is essential to life. It goes hand with neurologic health in general and those issues associated thereto are significant.

World Federation of Neurology initiatives are designed to further study and improvement of brain functionality. You might say that the organization promotes synapse, that junction between individual nerves which transmit nerve impulses along those circuits which comprise both the central and peripheral nervous systems.

So happy World Brain Day to you.
