Cartoons and the Coming Together of Ideas by Neural Comprehension.

One sad fact has come to my attention as of late: the local Ben & Jerry's closed due to a rat infestation. Now, I will have to get my Chocolate Fudge Brownie at the grocery store. I didn't even know rats liked ice-cream, but I should have. It's so obvious. Tom & Jerry clearly taught viewers that mice really like cheese. It is really no wonder, then, that they also like ice-cream. Don't you see? DAIRY! So cats' liking milk is becoming less of a surprise. An obvious connection: furry rodent-like animals and dairy. So there's my little nugget of wisdom for today. Definately food for thought.

I also wanted to share some thoughts on the amazing, delicate, complex and fragile human anatomy. Since I was diagnosed with a neurological disease many moons ago, I have read all I could find about the brain and its function in the body, and what can go wrong with it. It has been one extreme thrill ride!!! As a Christian, fully believing that my body-all of it-was created by a Holy Creator, the anatomy books that I study are much like devotional books. I am constantly reminded of how loving and powerful my God is by the complexity and diversity of human body structure. So many organs are required to perform so many varied tasks at the precise moment they are needed! The thought of the body, and of its Creator, is truly awe-inspiring. Even in reading this post, your eye muscles are moving your eyes back and forth, the muscles inside your eyes are constantly readjusting themselves to keep the screen in focus, your spine is keeping your body upright in your chair, your diaphragm is making room for your lungs to expand as they fill with air, and the neurons in your brain are firing off, as you are thinking about these things and being intellectually stimulated.

Amen--on both topics, dairy and the creative wonders of our Creator.

I hope that just because I like cheese and ice cream doesn't mean that I'm a furry rodent-like animal. Hmmm.
