Dear fellow
travelers,
Thank you again for
your responses. Gladly, I am back!! Almost adjusted to the cold, I know its not
as cold here as in some places, and I do have it good!! Agreed!!
One thing that I
have always marveled about is LIFE itself.
From my limited
knowledge of physics etc, what I have gleamed is that ALL LIFE is made of the
same elements. I find this fascinating. Interesting..
Element # Abbr. Name
1 H Hydrogen
6 C Carbon
7 N Nitrogen
8 O Oxygen
15 P Phosphorus
16 S Sulfur
For we novices, An
Element is also called an Atom, or a Particle. It has been stated that in this
"." dot,
there are as many atoms as there are seconds in 10 billion years!! Now, I cant
actually wrap my mind around that. You scientists, is that true??
The shadow of an
atom was actually photographed in 2012. Much process to do this.
Now since we as
alive humans are made out of the same elements as animals, and yes those
insects, the only difference is in the number and arrangements of those
elements. And yes to go a step further, plants being living entities are also
made of the same six elements. They just have a different molecular structure
from humans and animals.
Now to even go a
step further, the question to me is? Is the upholstered cotton couch, made from
once alive cotton plants, the wooden desk, the table and chair, made from once,
alive trees, and those baskets made from once alive vines, could they still be
alive in some fashion? Could their billions and billions of atoms still be
spinning around in their tiny universes?
Is all interconnected
in some mystical integrated way?
Does this awareness
tend to make me more conscious of all that is around me.
Do I treat my
possessions a little better. Thinking they could still have some form of life.
Just really pondering.
Is this tooo much
pondering??
What do you think??
Just pondering on
the possibilities of Life
