Something Quick About Perspective

I heard a fact the other day, but it was hard to really grasp the reality of it. The sharer of the fact seemed to understand that, so they tried to put it in terms better understood. I'm not sure it was that helpful. Check it out.

First it was: beside your cells, inside your body are forty-trillion microorganisms.

I mean...trillions? How easy is that to wrap your head around?

The "help" statement was: if each one of those microorganisms was as big as an adult, you'd be as tall as 8 billion Mt. Everests.

Oh sure, that's helpful.
