The Object That Weighs Less Than A Pound, That You Wouldn’t Be Alive Today Without
The Human Heart. Possibly one of the least appreciated things in Human History. The Average Human Heart clocks in at around 11 ounces. Yet for a small organ, it sure does a lot. It single handedly pumps blood, all throughout our bodies, providing oxygen, nutrients and so much more to every cell in our body. And what do we do? Some of us choose to eat absolute garbage, and clog up our arteries making its job, of keeping you and me alive, even harder than it already is. But we appreciate and acknowledge our heart right? After all, we did name a shape after it, that doesn’t even resemble it. The normal human heart is an abstract shape, but more resembles an oval, not the “heart” that we created in honor of it. You may think that you’re life is hard. Wether you’re a student, or an employee, or a boss, some of you must be working off of 6 hours of sleep? And then complaining about it the next morning. Well your and my heart can’t just take a break. While you’re sleeping, it’s still hard at work. It can’t just take a break, not even for 1 minute, or else neither you nor I would be able to wake up to complain the next morning about the crazy little amount of sleep we got.
