Being a psychology student, I hear a lot of lectures, theories and research of human behaviour. Everything seems to make sense in the moment because everything has been logically explained and seems rational. And it's like, ok, yeah it makes sense. And you walk out of the class, you take an exam, write about that phenomenon, trait, theory etc, and almost forget it and move on.
But then there are those times. Those aha moments! When someone's reactions, feelings, some words just click and make you think of that particular thing you'd heard of or studied! And there in that moment the little voice in your head goes, "Oh! (or rather oooooooooh!) That's what it is about!"
All of us go through this at some point of other. Think of some some song you have heard once or twice and maybe forgotten later. Or some poem you have had to study as a part of your syllabus, and it all seems nice
but you don't really get it. You may have heard it, appreciated it for its poetry and let it go.
And then some day, you just stop in the middle of something you are experiencing or doing, because it strikes you, it sinks in and you go 'oh!'. You want to hear that song again or read that poem again right then! Or go back to the one who shared that song with you or to the teacher who taught it to you and want to talk to them again about it. Share this reaction to it and this understanding of it that you've just had with them!
Such aha moments, all of them!
