Human beings are very interesting creatures. If I was another sentient being, I would choose to spend my life observing them. The complexity of emotions, the body language, the way they choose to express themselves, all these makes them unique. But what makes human so... human? Why are they like that? It is so multifarious and at some point, confusing. How does this emotion mechanism works? What plays a role in the process of making a decision? Is it just a bunch of molecules and atoms working together in such a composite manner? If so, why express anger over disrupting these molecules from cooperating? Why bother if a person is killed? It's just that his or her molecules stopped working.

Anything wrong with that?

Love for example, gives a different meaning to each individual. One would say love is only a feeling when a person greatly cares for another or another individual might say it is a feeling of being happy when a person sees his or her special counterpart. But what makes something so simple, complex? Why must it differ from one person to another? Why don’t we love the same thing or everything? Do the molecules and atoms that make up our body have anything to do with this? Do hormone levels influence how we define love and make it unique to each individual?

It was proven that there are hormones that allows human to feel good which goes by the name of endorphin. Judging from this, we can presume that every single emotion that occurs within us is controlled by hormones. The question is, how and why? How does our brain define love, fear, comfort, anger? Such questions I seek for answer but alas, it seems almost impossible.

Another question would be what is freewill? How can something be called freewill if it is suppressed in a being or object as my friend cleverly asked. What defines freewill? The ability to choose whatever a person wants to do, whatever a person wishes to have or whatever a person wishes to be are these all freewill? Then it comes down to religion, if you were born say, a Muslim or a Christian, then surely you would be indoctrinate with their respective teachings. This would affect the way you view the world and the people around you, your judgment would be according to what you were taught and experienced. You never chose to follow that religion but you are affected by it, unwillingly or unconsciously. Even if you chose to not follow it, you become skeptical, because you grew up learning to not follow or go against it. In the end, it affects the way you choose things, the way you choose to express yourself and whatever not.

Humanity, mankind, moral, principles, religion, everything, what makes up all of these? Atoms and molecules? Hormones and neurons? I doubt there’ll be anyone who can answer all these in the distant future but it is human nature to ask and seek. But is it human nature to give answers?
