At this moment thousands, millions,
billions, or even decillions of things are occurring at once. We cannot fathom the amount of complex
interactions occurring all around us, many of which go unseen. The atoms in my fingers are combined into
compounds, which produce chemical reactions that are fueling the operations of
my cells. The cells are replicating DNA,
converting food into energy, and many are falling off of my body or rubbing off
as I type. In my computer each keystroke
activates thousands of calculations; invisible waves travel to it through wires
underground and above air to my router.
As I sit here my smart watch retrieves information through the air from
my phone. Radio signals pass through
houses, landscapes, and even people; and then are translated into sound by the minuscule parts of radios in cars.
Germs thrive throughout my body, some leave, and some enter as I touch
the keys. And finally, inside my brain,
I process ideas into the movements required to translate these ideas. The universe is a beautiful thing.
