A Beating Heart

I borrowed a stethoscope from a friend because I wanted to listen to my own heart beat. It's one thing to intellectually know that our hearts are ah pumpin' 24/7 but it's an altogether different experience to actually hear it beating. Tripezoid! It's also very soothing to listen to...I think that if I was a person who had trouble falling asleep I would try and put myself to sleep by listening to my very own heart beating. Once again, I am appreciative of and awed by all the elements that go into keeping a body functioning properly. What a dang miracle.
Then I wanted to listen to my cats' hearts beating but all I could hear was very loud purring!
