Summer in Berlin

Well it seems like summer in Berlin has finally come...35 degrees, the stones are burning, and the hearts are opening...but apart from this "poetic" introduction, there are things which are still puzzling.

If you search in Wiki for Mood, you'll find out that the mood of an individual can be inferred from behaviour. Great deal, that we knew already...but the thing is that maybe there is more to it than appears in the beginning...because sometimes people diaguise their feelings, with or without knowing it, and the latter case is what I personally find most interesting. That's the small chink, wherein hides the difference between a sentient being and an intelligent machine; Those small, unintended changes in our mental state, which we also cannot control.

But how then is a man to regulate his behaviour according to the goals that he wants to achieve? Well, I think the answer hides in being cool. Just letting yourself go, and do whatever comes. Thus, the changes become an ingredient of the behaviour, they are incorporated so to speak, and so there is no need to explain them.

Of course, there is much more to it I think, so I'll be back with more distinct observations, because at this moment the heat doesn't quite let me think straight! :)
