How hateful my tenuous survival depends upon these multitudinous factors:
The 100,000 miles of blood vessels of my body.
My blood travelling 50,000 miles a day.
30 trillion cells.
DNA, which stretched out would go to the moon and back 6,000 times.
The 100 million neurons of my brain.
My kidneys pumping 400 gallons of blood a day.
Taking 5 million footsteps a year.
More bacteria in my mouth than people on earth.
2 million red blood cells dying every minute.
My ribs moving 5 million times a year.
My eyes actually part of my brain, 1/6th exposed.
My heart beating 5,000,000 times in my lifetime.
20 million cells in every square inch of skin.
As an early fetus, neuron growth being 250,000 each minute.
Losing 100 hairs a day.
My nose smelling 10,000 odors.
My eyes perceiving 500 shades of grey.
My tongue having a unique print.
11,000 liters of air a day.
5 million white blood cells.
My skin losing 600,00 particles every hour.
My liver, 96% water, completing 500 different processes!
My digestive system processing 50 tons of food and liquid.
300 muscles helping me to stand still.
An 8 lbs head with 500,000,000,000 atoms.
45 miles of nerves in my skin.
My spine working with 100 joints, 120 muscles, and 220 ligaments.
And that's just the beginning. Now I'm looking for a brain transplant! Can you help?
