Hey Folks,

This is just meant as a Friendly Reminder...

For those of you that think that they are nothing...


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/files/img/wi5176b9ae.png[/atsimg]


or that their computer or car or latest Android Phone is the hottest thing ever; they might be awesome but, honestly...


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/files/img/tm5176b9e7.jpg[/atsimg]


Of all that has been invented or is to be, of all that your senses can imagine, when you think that everything in this universe is breathtaking, while it’s true, there are just no comparisons...


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/files/img/ez5176ba48.jpg[/atsimg]


Yeah that’s right, you are unique...




Why do you think you have unique fingerprints?

Why do you think you have unique ADN?

Did you know that your smell is also unique?

Did you know that your tongue print is also unique?



Face it, you are still a deep mystery to doctors and scientists...Fact.


[color=gold]Talking of facts, here are some amazing facts about you:


• Your heart will approximately beat three billion times before it stops...now if those heartbeats were words...


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/files/img/uc5176ba24.png[/atsimg]


• If we were to represent the total surface area of your lungs and the breathing room that it needs, it would represent a tennis court...


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/files/img/mr5176ba10.JPG[/atsimg]


• Your eyes can distinguish up to a million colors and can take more information that the largest telescope known to man...


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/files/img/oi5176b9c0.jpg[/atsimg]


• Your brain is more complex than the most powerful computer known to man...


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/files/img/rd5176b9d3.jpg[/atsimg]


• When you touch something, that data is sent to your brain at 124 mph...


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/files/img/lw5176b985.jpg[/atsimg]


• When you smile, you activate 30 important muscles...


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/files/img/th5176b9fa.jpg[/atsimg]


• Even though sometimes we seem dense or thick, we are made of 70% water...


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/files/img/ms5176ba35.jpg[/atsimg]


• Your nose is more complex that the largest filtering air conditioner system known to man...


[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/files/img/qp5176b999.jpg[/atsimg]



[color=gold]More? Okay...



• Along with water, your body also contains copper, zinc, cobalt, calcium, manganese, phosphates, nickel and silicon...

• Your stomach’s digestive acids could dissolve zinc but its lining renews fast enough to avoid it...

• Your bones can support anything up to four times more than concrete...

• Your skin renews every second and you will shed 40 pounds of it in your lifetime...

• Each of your kidneys contains one million individual filters...

• Your eyes focus a hundred thousand times a day...

• In your lifetime, you produce enough saliva to fill two swimming pools...

• You are the only species that produce emotional tears...

• You are still a profound mystery to doctors and scientists, much the same as to the reason why your brain is more active at night than during the day...

So next time you think that your latest purchase is the epitome of technology...

...and that you are nothing...



Do yourself a favor and have a look in the mirror.

And even with all of our amazing qualities, we still manage to find the space for judgment, hatred, bigotry, ignorance, and greed.

I am the counter-balance in this thread, fyi. Just figure we shouldn't completely forget how badly we've screwed up.

Kool thread, S&F.

These little facts could be useful in a science fiction story I'm making... especially considering in this story theres a big corporation that specializes in giving surgeries to ordinary people to enhance their senses, stamina, immune system, strength, and countless other human abilities...

This is the second inspirational thread I've found that's given me ideas for my stories in the past 24 hours.

I'm on a role this week!

Thanks a lot OP!

Hi SonoftheSun, Wow, that was so neat to read...way cool! Took a lot of research on your part but so worth it!! I was feeling a little down and physically not so hot too but now I feel g-r-e-a-t!! I read it all to hubby and now we both feel like the cats meow.
So good to read a topic like this and to realize just how special we are and how prescious life is.

We have so much going for us and as one poster mentioned, if we can only make a difference for the better in this world. We are all in this together. Just think what a wonderful world this would be if we could finally work together to solve the problems of the human condition. We ARE the world. Life is such a gift and treasure. Maybe, one by one, we can make a difference...bring about real change...change for the better in every way. That is my hope and dream anyhow. Will see. Thanx again for a lovely topic/post!
