Here is a thread for interesting little tidbits.
I’ll start it off.
Did you know that the good feelings that we get from altruism come from a different part of the brain than do other kinds of pleasures? It has been studied and not only does a different part of the brain become active, the normal ‘pleasure’ center of the brain goes quiet. Apparently they can’t really operate simultaneously.
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.
