Another week bites the dust. It's been basically the same as every other week, disappointments and triumphs along the way. The way I see myself has changed so much in the past year, especially how I see my body. Now don't get me wrong and jump to conclusions! By the term body, I mean the physicalities of it, not the asthetics. What I mean is now a days I see every part of my body as an engineered system with all parts working together in harmony. It's amazing really in my point of view. To clarify, whenever I'm just doing everyday things and tasks, I really don't notice anything spectacular, like most people. However, when I'm bored or if I start to zone out, I start thinking about it. Whenever I look at my arm at these times, I don't see "my arm"; I see a tool. I see flesh and muscle, wrapped tightly around bone. As these muscles contract around the bone, I see thin pores open and close in the muscle. I don't really notice the tendons much in this way, but when I see the veins I think of a vast network going throughout my arm and reaching around it, branching off everywhere and supplying blood to everything. It's an extremely abstract way to look at it, and I'm not quite sure why I think about them like this sometimes. I do know it started a few weeks ago. Thinking like this really gives one a sense of purpose. It makes me believe that my arms and my body were designed in a precise manner for a precise reason, and that for anyone is a nice feeling. It's like my body was designed the way it was for a specific reason and eventually every aspect of it will come in handy one way or another; I think that applies to everyone.
