Humans sometimes gets stuck with emotions which become
inexpressible to his fellow human being. Maybe there are many reasons to it. It
is said that humans have nearly 100 billion neurons in our brain that is
roughly equal to the number of stars in the Milky Way Galaxy . That’s a huge
number which numbs our imaginations to quantify it in terms of number of zeroes
after the 1 in 100 billion. That maybe one of the reasons why humans could not
express the emotions. Emotions are electrical signals flowing through this neurons
and each neuron is connected to nearly
40,000 other neurons . Looking the number of permutation and combination that
can be made with this, its many , infinitely many .
Maybe it is because of how the wheel of evolution turned.The difference in which the language
came into existence, homo sapiens came into existence nearly 200,000 years ago
.And when compared to the origin of communication there is a gap , that can
also be one of other reason .
But there are also other deliberate reasons; our fellow
human might try not to understand each other. Like the gap between arises when
one fight with other human, they deliberately try not to understand the other
rather make him/her to understand us, because deep down we want to be heard
than listen. But there is a key that can bridge this gap of communication or
expression of emotion, it is coined as compassion. Compassion is like borrowing
our fellow being’s shoes so that we can walk with to understand or have glimpse
of how him/her perceive their world. There are also things cannot be translated
from one language to other, like the word wabi-sabi . It is a Japanese word
meaning ‘the beauty in imperfections ‘but there is no perfect translation in
English language. Maybe in English there
is no beauty in imperfection so to express such an emotion we have to borrow
word from Japanese. Like that its evident there are many emotions that is
missing in one language but found in other. Language might have like that
restricted our emotions, but it is not a barrier to understand each other.
There is a neuron called Mirror neuron which helps us to understand the
emotions of the fellow human beings.
If all of us could understand each other with absolute
purity of emotions that comes straight from the human heart , the world would
have been beautiful. There won’t be many wars even. But the complexity of human
brain such that many things are deliberately ignored , as big as between two nations to two people like couples , which
all can be understand with compassion .
