Weapon of Choice

What is real in this world of lies?
I have been reading/thinking about life, love and philosophy. What exactly is life, do we really exist?
I have come to a few conclusions and would like to hear your thoughts on the matter.
What is love? Is it real? Or is it a lie? I've realized that love is a set of emotions, and most people involve fear with love. Ex. "I'm afraid of him hurting me."
Does love come down to how much you think and feel about a person? The more time that person spends on your mind the more attraction you have to that person? Not necessarily attraction, but the more open you are to that person. The more feelings that arise when communicating with that person creates a stronger bond? Whether its feelings of anger (fear based) or feelings of trust (love based).
But I digress.
Back to the matter of life.
Could it be that humans are extremely primitive in consciousness/cognitive processing? We only use a tiny % of our brain capacity, and why is that? If we were to be able to use more of our brainpower would it lead to an evolution of sorts? Possibly comprehending more dimensions or understanding what we really are?
Oh, and also. Has anyone ever thought about thinking about what they are thinking of, from a 3rd persons view? Looked at actions outside of your own perspective?
This is how change occurs, I bleev...

    We only use a tiny % of our brain capacity, and why is that? We're leaving room for evolution.

  2. We are all creatures of emotion, its that simple. We do acutally use all of brain though. That stat is purely a myth I'm afraid. But its difficult as a thinking person to congitively handle our emotions so we end up becoming slaves to them. TO me love is based on how much you are thinking about someone and what most importantly the effect of loss does to you.

  3. "We only use a tiny % of our brain capacity, and why is that?" is not a true statement. It's a common myth.

    We actually did evolve differently than most other vertebrates on this Earth due to our large intelligence. However, the difference in us is our brain to body size ratio, not the proportion of brain used nor brain mass.

  4. I have these moments to I found that the best answer is that everything is real to us but not to everyone, like i have things that are real to me but someone somewhere does not know that what i have is real so that item those not exist to them
