Strength and Weakness



There's probably a day that one may feel fresher,as if theyre reborn again.There's a degree of rebirth momentum that I felt today.Im not keen to write what happen in my medical life or any specific moment that I wanna share with anyone, as I prefer to write an ambiguous story due to some certain circumstances.Here the atypical part of my life begins..

I was standing in front of bus stop ,approximately 3.5 mins before the bus came.And sudden surge of physiological awareness slipped through my mind as the bus approached the place where I was standing.I glimpsed to a lady next to me, and the smile on her face was symmetrical,which is mainly controlled by cranial nerve 7(a nerve that goes out of brain and control the muscles of face).(I mentioned symmetrical because there was a person that Ive seen today who had facial surgery,and showed asymmetrical smile,prob due to damage to the same nerve).That glimpse jumped to another one who was walking across the road,and as he walked,I glanced at his gait.Mid stance,toe off,heel strike(the phases of walk) changed intermittently as he walked.I was struggling to figure out which muscle exactly works for each phase,but the idea was faded away as I had a quick look at another man who was sitting across the road while holding a cup with his hand.I was briefly thought of intrinsic muscles of his hands(small muscles of hand)plus thumb opposition(thumb's ability to touch other fingertips,e.g when hold needle),which were innervated by median and ulnar nerves.Before I could grasp more chance to observe around,the bus came right at the moment.

To reframe,that of which 'not so closed' observation was an uneasy explanation of a complex machinery of human body.That we were given such a fine,yet sophisticated neurological(nerve related) system in body.And thats only a part of a number of other body systems which work all days,to let us do ,what we want and need to do.

For a small connection that is unrelated to above,most of us have lack of awareness of how important this is to our achievement.Have mankind not considered how they're created?That which is from a leechlike blood clot?Then,they turn out to be an arrogant,thinking that they are in control of themselves?

As a whole,somehow theres a small piece of awareness of so many things that i need to learn.And when they say knowledge is power,im not fully agree with that proverb.i think(not necessarily right)knowledge is a mean of humility.That one who acquires knowledge supposedly become more humble.Coz as they know more,theres a lot more to know.Those who are knowledgeable wont think of themselves as 'I know everything'.

"Those who feel content with the knowledge that they gain, are in delusion"(H.Y)

salam saudara unai serunai. i like reading your blog, the impersonal way of how you see things make it easier for me to relate what you experience and what i might experience had i been in your place. maybe that sounds weird because some people find it better to describe events in a more personal way that adds emotional and sentimental touch in order to arrive at a sense of intimacy (in a platonic way, of course). but imo when a thought is conveyed in a neutral, impersonal yet thoughtful manner it gives more room to think, interpret and explore. stimulating the left brain to think logically and impartial, yet forcing the right brain to think in a more creative way, ways that might lead to a better understanding of the seemingly mundane things that we take for granted for the most part of our lives. all in all i like your style of writing.
