From the Little Yellow Journal

What a wonderful surprise to find a chronicle of humanity! Ingenious idea… been spending the day learning about the cardiovascular system and continually realizing the genius, complexity, and miracle of the body and of being alive. Today I am thankful for a body that gets to experience this world. Heaven is on Earth after all.
