A diversion might help relieve some of the madness around us all?  The thought popped into my head about "self".  I was doing a simple task at the kitchen sink, and the thought popped up and I asked myself, why do I do it that way? Then I thought, is it "me" or my brain? t.
The diversion is to give some thought about this fallacy of self.  Cheers, GROG
you can even regress back to the day you first recognized your "self," at about 18 months or so, although that day seems to be a wall that you cannot see behind, at least for most ppl? "Pre-self-consciousness" that is, but even "pre-reflective self-consciousness" has useful parallels i guess

                                        Sounds like the brain is bored!
Maybe the brain could buy itself a jigsaw puzzle to wile away its lonely hours

                                        hard to believe, but you made your "self" up!
