Recently our bunch of close friends had a get-together. It was after a long time no see reunion so we all got so dope into our conversations and about the happening in our lives. We were discussing on so many topics, but what intrigues my interest was the topic of Schrodinger’s Cat and the recent memes that were trending in regards to it. After a jovial discussion on it and knowing what exactly does the theory of Schrodinger’s Cat is about, it hit me to think in view of its psychology inputs keeping the physics aside.
As the theory of Schrodinger’s Cat suggests that if, you keep a cat along with something that can actually kill your cat and put them together into a box and sealed it. You can only predict but would not know whether the cat is alive or dead, until you observe it by opening the box. So in that sense, till you could not determine the status of your cat, it is both alive and dead. It sounds interesting, if I say let the box be your brain and let’s dump our thoughts, our cat along with some feeds, the poison (maybe/ may not be) together. The results of these to a person’s behaviour can never be assured but can only be predicted. It could be positive or negative. Until we observe and the visualize the outcomes of the said test, we can’t be sure about anything. Thus, we can feed our brains with various emotions, but how we would react to it will always differ, given the situations and we cannot judge the person “good or bad”. As in the given sense just like the cat, the person it both “good and bad” given that the thoughts could be positive or negative.
When I shared my feelings with my friends, even they felt is actually the way we feed our brains daily and see whether our cat is yet alive or dead. It might look absurd to some people, but I think it really makes sense that this theory has many implications if we put it in use for our daily lives. It can also help us, to simplify our thoughts and how are we feeding our brains daily, with an expectations that we wished to see in the resultant output. Our behaviours are the resultant output of our emotions, feelings, drives and the feeds that we feed it with. Optimistic personalities are the resultant output of the positive feeds that cater the brains thinking process and pessimistic are the ones with negative feeding prospects.
That’s how I meet Schrodinger’s cat on a wonderful get together evening along with my friend. So what are you feeding today to your cat?
