Hugged a Rhino lately?

I think one of my top favorites in life is the Rhino Virus. It's sooo stinking fun! You feel a bit stiff and achy a few days before (but what's new with that - could be anything) and then WHAM overnight you have this congestion, headache, blurry vision, impacted hearing, and fatigue. There is nothing like it. It is genius actually. I mean, come on - the common cold wiped out the aliens during the War of the Worlds. Biology at its best!

Then, if you are prone, and REALLY lucky - The Rhino creates the perfect environment for a sinus infection. A civilization of a million infective cells and 1 rhino inhabit the small recesses in my face. It's facinating, and I've gotten to experience it first hand for 4 days now. I'm "one" and bonded with some of the tiniest creatures of God's creation. It's a beautiful thing.

Now, everyone take a moment to create a quiet space, empty your mind, and meditate on the goodness of life - the tiniest germ cell, the miracle of biology. Inhale...

  1. Oooh... my sinuses hurt just reading this one! LOL We are just coming into winter here in Australia, and my two little munchkins are already sounding a little stuffy. Time for me to dose up on vitamin C!
