Week 10

Do you believe our memories
are encoded into our cells?

I do.
Or I hope.

I just had the most amazing dream:
chasing a little two year old boy,
named Matthew,
out of a bath with a towel.

He was giggling so hard--
really enjoying the chase.
And when I captured him,
he pulled me along.
I just wanted to fluff his hair.

He had the most amazing smile.


I still can't fully talk.
How to lecture today?
I guess I won't. Peer critiques anyway.

I've decided to look my best,
so no time for blogging.
I have a terrific nylon tank,
when I slipped it on this morning,
I got deodorant marks down the side. Crumby.
Must go fix.

I, for one believe that our cells are encoded with memories.

I hope you have a good day. Keep up the excellent writing.

I HATE it when that happens (the deodorant marks, not the cool dreams).

I'm not sure I understand. What do you hope this is a memory of? A former life?

I stumbled across these facts while contemplating the problems and wonders inherrent in a future Resurrection. of course there are differing philosophies, but the same interesting facts:

The physical body that each of us possess (or possesses us) is made up of roughly 50 trillion cells. About 30 billion of these are nerve cells. Every day millions of cells throughout our bodies are being replaced. This takes place through the normal process of attrition and replacement. Indeed 98% of our body is replaced within one year. The remaining cells are replaced the following year. In fact, 10% of all cells in your body are replaced every 3 weeks, 25% of the cells are replaced every 5-6 weeks. The cells that make up our skin is totally new every thirty days. The cells that make up the soft muscle tissue of our internal organs is replaced in two to three months. The liver is replaced within six weeks, while the stomach lining takes as little as four days. Some cells, such as those closely involved in the process of digestion, are replaced as rapidly as every five minutes!

I hate the deodorant lines whenever I wear a black shirt.

Cool dream - I wonder what it means?

Tim! Fascinating to be sure . . . especially #15:

"Programmed to continually seek more and more." Programmed by whom??? :-)

All my studies seem to be shifting to the mind/brain & unlocking its secrets--have you seen the March 2005 National Geographic?! A must.
