Circuits and diagrams

I've always understood math. Not the complex problem solution type arithmetic though. The simple math. Equations, and their need to balance. Numbers and calculations that comprise and compromise us. The logic gates, and the chaos theories. Maths I get.

The choices I've made, and will keep making, are all governed by simple rules. Rules that have been a part of me even before I understood what society was. The mind is a complex circuit, it's got algorithms and programs pre-built into it. Human nature, for example, is a set of instructions. Rage, love, pity, envy, they're all programs that run on different sets of instructions. I was born with my set of instructions. My destiny is hard-wired into my brain.

I though do have a firewall. Something that, more often than not, prevents society's viruses or trojans from creeping in. It's called free-will. Mine's a bit stronger than others. But it's passed through many beta-stages. And many, many more upgrades are yet to come. The same goes for a lot of other programs I'm running. Those who don't understand these upgrades, often mistake it for coming-of-age or maturity. I see this as self-evolution. Who's gonna wait for nature anyways?

What does scare me though are the programs that I feel are becoming redundant. Some very powerful emotions I feel I've either modified or over time have slowly diminished. I still recall them from memory because they make for good scripts and decent headlines. But I can't be too sure if I still feel them like I'm supposed to. Only angels know.
