Morrie's Aphorism#5

Be hopeful but not foolishly hopeful
I think everyone knows this except for people who are foolishly convinced that there is something to believe in.

How do electrolytes work in our body?

Many normal body functions are dependent on these substances. Normal body functions, not to mention performance, are severely compromised if acceptable levels of electrolytes are not present, especially in the heat and / or when exercise goes beyond the two hour mark.

Morrie's Aphorism#4

When you are utterly frustrated or angry, express these feelings. You don't have to be nice all the time, just most of the time.
I think this is true. If everyone can do that then the world would be a lot more perfect.

What is lightning? Why does wearing rubber shoes help you during a storm?





What is lightning? Why does wearing rubber shoes help you during a storm?
Lightning is atmospheric discharge of electricity usually accompanied by thunder, which typically occurs during thunderstorms, and sometimes during volcanic eruptions or dust storms.

During a thunderstorm lightning may hit the ground and travel through the acidic raindrops that was once in the sky. If we had metal soles the electric charges of lightning will travel to the ground, through the water, up your metal soles and into your body. I think that will be really painful. Some of us don't like to get electrocuted so we wear soles made with rubber, because rubber is a good insulator so it can prevent lightning from coming up your soles.

Morrie's Aphorism#3

Don't assume that it's too late to be involved in something.
I think this is quite true only once you miss the chance it is very hard to get in it again. So you must be fast. You must learn to seize the chances

Morrie's Aphorism#2

Learn to forgive yourself and to forgive others.
I think this is kind of important because if everyone could do that then there will be no revenges and tragedies.

What would a day in your life be like without electricity?

What would a day in your life be like without electricity?
I think that the days will either be really boring or better. Without the discovery of electricity I think there will be no artificial light, computers, internet and many other things that need electricity from the start.
Things like clocks, washing machine and all those things that maybe our daily need might never be invented.
I think that if there was completely no electricity then my life will be a lot simpler, because there will be no games that I would have to keep looking at, there will be no textbooks (not the printed kind), just imagining it gives me a picture of a good world. But there may be some disadvantages like there will be no vehicles like airplanes and cars and maybe not even bicycles. Maybe there will be some hand-made bicycle and a lot of horse riding.

Morrie's Aphorism

Get as much as help as you can when you need it.
This is Morrie's aphorism. There is nothing special to it because everybody who is smart enough will know it. Morrie's aphorism is what we need to do everyday.
