You Are A Miracle
Have you ever paused to ponder the miracle that is you? You are absolutely amazing!
You are a brilliant and intricate collection of 7 billion billion billion atoms, which is a 7 followed by 27 zeros. Your body is made up of a staggering 724 trillion cells.
You have 78 organs that make up your body (5 of which are critical for staying alive) and 11 complex organ systems:
Integumentary System
Skeletal System
Muscular System
Lymphatic System
Respiratory System
Digestive System
Nervous System
Endocrine System
Cardiovascular System
Urinary System
Reproductive Systems
You take approximately 16 breaths a minute, 960 breaths an hour, 23,040 breaths a day, and 8.4 million breaths in an entire year.
Your heart beats at an astonishing rate of 60-100 times a minute. That’s roughly 100,000 times a day and over 35 million times a year.
You process an average of 6,200 thoughts a day, which is nearly 200,000 thoughts a month and over 2.2 million thoughts a year.
You are truly one of a kind and uniquely special. Of all the billions of people who have ever lived, there has never been another you. Your genetic makeup, physical features, personality, strengths, talents, abilities, experiences, and a hundred other factors all make you distinct from every other person who has ever lived.
You see the world in a way that no one else does, because no one else has ever lived your exact life. No other person has experienced the precise mix of your influences, relationships, and circumstances.
And you are not here by accident. Regardless of what you have been through or what you have done, your life is remarkably valuable and full of meaning. You are worth far more than you could possibly comprehend or fathom.
You are a miracle, and your life has been endowed with immense purpose and potential by the God who made everything. We need you to be you—the best possible you that you can be.
You are an extraordinary gift to the world and everyone around you. Never forget that. Every single day presents brand-new opportunities and possibilities for you to live the life you were created to live.
The average lifespan is about 27,375 days, which amounts to roughly 673 million breaths and over 2 billion heartbeats.
May you choose to make every day, every breath, and every heartbeat count, because your life matters, and you are a miracle!
