Guys. Have you ever wondered how on earth a girl can have several conversations at once and keep track of them all? Or how she can remember something from a while back and talk to you about it, expecting you to remember it as well as she? Have you considered the fact that many young women can be happy one minute and furious the next? Or how she can be discussing something with you and abruptly change the subject to something that seems completely unrelated?
Girls. Have you ever marveled at an older woman's ability to organize everything? Or to have a conversation with you about one thing and return to a different conversation with someone else days later as if there was never a break? Or how a mother can handle work, kids, and social life all at once?
We live in a day and age of computers and everything internet. Even this blog of mine is electronic information. Data. We also live in a day and age of "connection." Everything is connected. Everything relates to everything else. One tiny piece of data leads to another and another.
It is the same in the mind of the average female human. Her mind is a network. Not just a storage unit of information and functions (Ahem, not like a man's brain at all, no.). Everything within her is connected. The synapses firing in her "little grey cells" touch one portion, one thought centre, and another and another. No division. Even in sleep, when the mental activity slows, the connections are still occurring.
A woman's mind is the internet. Yes, things have their place, but it is all related. Everything integral to everything else in her life. Miss Google will have an answer ready for you, or she will make up one. She will offer advice whether or not you want it. Tell you that such-and-such is recommended for so-and-so even when it seems a little far fetched. She will have what you want to hear and/or what you should actually listen to. She is a sponge, soaking up new thoughts, ideas, relationship lessons and tactics. She gathers. She relates. She receives. She reacts.
What she chooses to do with that network of a mind, that's what sets her apart.
