My Heart Beats Faster Than Yours

So many things have happened in the past few days. It's been pretty crazy, fantastic. It was something that seemed like it came straight out of a movie. Intense.

Aside from all of that, today we learned about the heart some more. I want to share with you some insight into that. There is this hole in the heart between the right and left atrium. Don't worry about what those are in case you don't know, lol. This hole is supposed to close at the first breathe of a newborn baby. As adults,  that hole has already closed. It is used in utero for a specific purpose. The hole was there because it helped the blood leak straight into the rest of the body instead of the lungs because a baby doesn't have to use its lungs yet. The first breath closes the hole, so the blood can immediately rush into the lungs to be oxygenated.

When I think about little things like this and how there are so many different aspects about our body that work out perfectly and purposefully, there has to be some "being" out there that created it. I just can't believe that two rocks collided to make the world we live in. Of course, everyone has their own opinions and I'm totally open to hearing other people's thoughts about the complexities of life. This is just something I thought I'd share with whoever reads this so you have more insight into the human body and how AWESOME it is!!!
