Do you ever have wow moments? You know, those times when your little brain just lights up and sort of quivers from something youve just seen or heard or thought about? I seem to do that a lot. I dont know why. I just do. And it feels good.
Like this morning. I was sitting on the couch enjoying my second cup of coffee (it usually takes at least two cups before I can even consider being semi-functional) when I decided to reach back into the old memory bank and do a review of file ACD-22-46857-36-BBA-57.2941. Thats the BFS (Brain Filing System) designation for the Im Alive file. Well as it turned out, I accessed the sub-category BBQ file designated Memory Steak Sacrifice 7-14-73 that wasnt all that pleasant to recall primarily because in the process of charcoaling the steaks, I tipped over the barbeque and caught the lounge chair on fire. It wasnt a good experience. I wish I wouldnt have accessed that one.
After making a minor correction to the file designation, I was able to retrieve the one I was hoping for. I also decided to bring up the associated files on Awe, Amazement and Thanksgiving. It seemed to be a logical package to me.
I like to review this file periodically. It has never failed to give me a pronounced case of brain quivers. Heres why. First, I find it absolutely incomprehensible that I could exist as a living, breathing, semi-functional animal-type organism. Im alive right here, right now - on this insignificant planet we call earth. I think about how I started out as an single cell a tiny speck you cant even see and grew all of the other jillion cells and body parts out of that. I am. WOW!
As an result, I can eat, think, stand, scratch an itch and do thousands of things even the best and most complicated computers cant do. I can communicate with other creatures like myself sometimes with even an acceptable level of mutual understanding (teenagers excepted). I can see, hear, taste, smell and feel. OK, so I dont do any of that as well as I used to but what the heck, Im starting to wear out a bit. Oh yeah, we do that too, dont we? Wear out, that is. And then someday I wont be here any more. This old bod will revert back to its basic molecules.
Gosh. I wasnt here for a long, long time. Now I am for just a short time. Then I wont be again. WOW! Brain quiver!
Since Im only gonna be here for a short time, I wonder if there isnt something I should be doing to sort of say Thanks and make a little contribution to this neat world I live in. I know. Maybe I could write a short article about being alive. Yeah. Ill do that. I think Ill title it WOW. Now if I could just think of a way to start it out
