"Chaque opération de l'esprit est accompagnée d'une modification correspondante du cerveau"
— Thomas Reid
Simplified Meaning:
When we think, feel, or learn something new, our brain changes a bit to reflect those mental activities. Imagine you are learning to play the guitar. At first, it's hard, and your fingers might struggle to find the right strings. Slowly, with practice, you get better. This improvement shows that your brain is adapting and modifying itself to help you remember and perform the new skills you're learning. Similarly, if you feel happy or sad, different parts of your brain are activated, and they might start to change slightly from those emotions. In essence, our brain is always changing a little with everything we think or do, reflecting our mental processes in its structure. This adaptability of the brain helps us grow, learn, and adapt to new situations in life continuously.
