CONUNDRUM Most of us might have heard of stories that are hard to believe. Tales that leaves us fascinated, aghast in disbelief and perhaps, even bewildered as to whether or not these are mere tall tales strewn from the wild imaginings of an idle mind. By nature, the human mind is an incredible machine trying to absorb every bit of information that come along. These bits of information are carefully processed and analyzed, while at the same time being earnestly crossed referenced to the vast amount of knowledge it has already learnt. As we already know, the human mind acts as data base of all that has been learned from the very day we have come in to terms with our consciousness. Imagine a sponge that has the capability to absorb all the waters of vast oceans, such is the power of the human mind. Yet despite the power of our mind to comprehend and analyze, there are still stories and tales that defies the basic principles of logic. Naturally,something that cannot be quantified by a logical explanation is regarded by the human mind as untrue, false or at times impossible. However, it is another human feat that keeps us holding on to any information that we know should be discarded due to its lack of logical bases, curiosity. It is our personal attempt to try to explain and understand things or an experience thru investigation and analysis in search for the raison d'être. Hence, it is curiosity that leads us to corridors of the unknown and the unexplained in search of an answer. It is easy for us to immediately dismiss things that are foreign to our understanding. Labeling such stories as mere fiction and a figment of somebody else's imagination, yet have we really went out of our way to ask the sequestions; where did this story come from? Is there any factual basis why this tale came about? Is it plausible? It is in our lack of understanding that we immediately discard any attempt to know the truth. Fear is borne by our ignorance. Failure to comprehend things and occurrences summons our well hidden fear of things unknown. Fears that are looming in the deep recesses of our mind come alive and effortlessly enter our consciousness once the cognitive functions of our mind fail to explain what confronts us. In an attempt to conquer these fears, our mind automatically switches to defensive mode by exerting a conscious effort to dismiss these thoughts by stereo typically labeling them as mere figment of our imagination. Umberto Eco's character, Brother William of Baskerville, in his novel "The Name of the Rose" puts it succinctly when he said that the world speaks to us like a book. The signs are there for us to see and investigate, understand and learn from, comprehend and accept. The only way to conquer our fears is to understand, to embrace knowledge, finding the missing pieces of life's conundrum.
