february 16

for our MOM: Think of all the amazing things your body does in a day.  The little things: tying your shoes, making sure you keep the nutrients from your food and getting rid of the rest... Have you thanked your body recently?  Maybe now would be a good time.

JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes: "Lose Yourself" & "Till I Collapse" by Eminem - with a note about adrenaline and the (sometimes desired) effects of music in our culture]
The human body is such an amazing design.  Evolution.  Wow.   Whether you believe that Mother Nature, or God, or selective adaptation from primordial ooze is responsible, it's quite a system, and yet it's also oddly imperfect.  Why do we have such weird quirks?  Why is pain necessary?  Or fever?  Or phlegm?  Why couldn't we just have a red light or buzzer that goes off and says "Er, hey, you should probably get some rest"?
