surroundings, their heart becomes hard like a stone. They lose the capability to feel they are doing wrong when they engage in bad deeds. However, when that person gets that spark of faith back, whenever that may be, their heart becomes soft again. Thoreau describes the changes as “thundering of the pond”. He used the word thundering to portray a powerful force that is strong enough to crack the ice and also crack open a dead heart. Thunder allows the cracking of the heart to let in the…

Your peripheral vision is gone—there’s complete focus, then a silence so muted that all you know is the feeling of your heart beating. Then, as you stand there motionless, you feel the adrenaline. I mean really feel it—a syrup coursing through your veins, yet not a syrup as it moves faster than blood. You know when it hits your heart because it starts beating faster, faster, faster, and then the feeling is gone. Then everything is gone—emotions, breath, sensation… Then there is silence. Silence.…

Truncus arterious gives two branches right aortic trunk and left aortic trunk. Each aortic trunk again divides into three branches- a) Carotid arch: it divides into – Lingual artery – it supplies blood to tongue and hyoid. Common carotid – it supplies blood to buccal cavity and brain. it consists swelling at the…

The Re-Enchantment of Everyday Life written by Thomas Moore describes enchantment as an atmosphere of emotion and fantasy that clinches to the heart, which can hinder it or send it to joy and day dreams. At moments, the heart can be overwhelmed by the beauty and imagination by an unforgettable feature in the world or a spirit or voice speaking of a thing, a place, or a person. The soul is our deepest self that includes our deepest emotions, our capacity for intimacy, and the resting place of…

The daily stresses of my life do not evaporate with time. They linger and unless they're emitted like any other emotion, they fester and grow like a virus. With each passing moment, the growing frustrations of my days dissolve into my pure and rational bloodstream. The red makes a slow transition into a dark black, as if a chemical reaction has occurred. The infected blood cells metastasize and circulate, feeding on the healthy tissue as it ventures throughout my body. Fortunately, school…

The old man focused his vision to the same old busy friendly avenue. The old man sighed in a depressed manner “So it happened again.” His eyes extinguished its lively fire back…

When it comes to writing fictional works, not many authors relived the fame and received criticism like prominent author Upton Sinclair and his work The Jungle. When writing The Jungle, Mr.Sinclair did not think he would stumble upon the conditions that lead to better regulation of labor and food distribution laws.

For this asana, I chose to move from the counterpose of Uttanasana to lie flat on the back.

As a rule, the gill area is greater in fast-moving crabs (Portunids) than in sluggish bottom dwellers; decreases progressively from wholly aquatic, to intertidal, to land species; and is greater in young crabs than in older crabs. Often the gills are enclosed in protective chambers, and ventilation is provided by specialized appendages that create the respiratory current. As in cephalopod mollusks, oxygen utilization is relatively high—up to 70 percent of the oxygen is extracted from the water…

Since the mid-1800’s, research contributing to the vast amount of information we know today about stem cells has broadened our horizons in the field of medicine, as well as led to several discoveries involving humanity’s origin. Although they comprise only a small portion of known stem cells, muscle stem cells are indeed equally as important to science because of their aid in helping us to gather new facts about the human body. Therefore, to completely understand how these cells affect our…
