By no stretch of imagination do I consider myself a scientist. Frankly not even a science stream student.
Last having learnt Math in high school, which was about 36 summers ago, I cannot claim to be a mathematician.
As a diabetic I do have to keep a check on my BMI, which I do with a Nelson’s eye.
In my pursuit of educating myself about the connect ‘atween Health and Weight, I stumbled upon some humbling facts.
Dravid vs. Sachin
Perfect technique vs. Sweet skill
Optimum BMI vs. Definitely overweight
Sheer dedication vs. Divine blessings
Normal BMI: Brain volume vs. Optimal ratio
Now comes the painful part. How much of our resources do we utilize?
As one great soul put it,” I am but a child, playing on the beach abutting the ocean of knowledge and just picking up grains of sand”! Tymerri
To see a world in a grain of sand ‘
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand’
And eternity in an hour. William Blake
All I can say after five decades of existence is that, in the pursuit of perfection, performance counts, not your pride.
