What books do you want to read?
I’m reading a great book, or at least trying to. I really really want to read this one.
I’m a reader. I love books. I’ll read practically anything. From textbooks to novels to memoirs to packaging to transcripts to google, you name it, I’ll read what’s in front of me. I love being a part of this Information Age. Ah the era of technology and Wikipedia. When I was a little kid I would read encyclopedias and dictionarys. I didn’t remember everything, but I loved taking in knowledge. I still do. At this age I know enough to know not to believe everything I read or hear, since it can get all so conflicting at times, but yeah, just another geeky thing.
This cell book, oh my, it’s so fascinating! Our cells THINK. They decide. They are intelligent. They are capable. They perform so many functions. Here we are going along, without a thought about what our cells are up to and here they are, every day working in perfect harmony with each other all for us! It’s a whole microcosm of trouble shooting and restoration and growth. Our cells are keeping us alive even if they get the opposite of help from us. They don’t care. They have simple/complicated jobs and they do their best, thwarted or not, to do them.
Yes, I have been marveling at my cells! I’m barely a few chapters in and I’m amazed at how far scientists have come in their knowledge and abilities regarding just the tiny cell. The microscope had to be invented, mitochondrial had to be discovered, invetro, was once not possible. Now we are learning more and more about cells and I am loving learning about all these things and more. I love that my cells are independently intelligent! Something cool that I am lucky to be grateful for.
