The ideas presented in the

The ideas presented in the two readings made up some of my favorite parts o psychology in high school. I find it really interesting how so much of our thinking is subconcious and we are only aware of a small portion of the information our brain processes. I continue to be amazed by the brain, it can perform so many different funtions at one time that it doesn't bring to awareness. This also baffles me, how can something that drives our every motion and thought be so hidden from our conciousness. Why aren't we constantly concious of our breathing or of the processing of sound or color? Tacit knowing is far more extensive than I ever realized.
