What if our minds work like the usual memory or storage that stores data that were perceived by our sensors (senses)?
What if our minds are the most powerful in-memory processing that stores so much data and is powerful enough to correlate things and create a wonderful story about our surroundings?
Ain't we design systems that are fool-proof enough up to the extent of our capability that when an error happens, it triggers us to fix it? How different is that when a mosquito bites us and that bite triggers us to scratch the itch?
