EYE = “OJO” (PRONOUNCED “OH-HO) IN SPANISH 🇲🇽

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today Eye have a post about the Human Eye

I almost lost an eye when I was a kid to some backyard shananagins gone south

The doctor who saved my eye and vision was the same doctor that invented Lasik Eye Surgery (Dr. Todd Gothard)

Here are some facts about the human eye and a picture of the eye’s anatomy

The human eye is an incredible organ with many fascinating features. Here are some interesting facts about the human eyeball:

1. Fastest Muscles in the Body

The muscles that control your eyes are the fastest and most active in your body. They can move in less than 1/100th of a second to help you shift your focus.

2. Lifelong Size

Unlike most body parts, your eyeballs are almost the same size at birth as they are in adulthood, growing only slightly over time.

3. Blinking Keeps Your Eyes Healthy

On average, you blink about 15-20 times per minute, which helps keep your eyes moist and clean.

4. A Unique Fingerprint

The iris (the colored part of your eye) has a unique pattern in every person, even more distinct than fingerprints. This is why iris scans are used for security.

5. Millions of Photoreceptors

Your retina contains about 120 million rod cells for night vision and 6 million cone cells for color vision and detail.

6. Limited Color Perception

Humans can perceive about 10 million different colors, but some animals, like mantis shrimp, can see many more colors due to additional photoreceptor types.

7. Blind Spot

Every eye has a blind spot where the optic nerve connects to the retina, but your brain compensates for this by filling in the missing information.

8. Constant Adjustments

The eyes constantly adjust for light, distance, and focus, working together so seamlessly that you don’t notice most of the effort.

9. Visible Brain Tissue

The retina is technically part of your brain, making the eyes the only place where brain tissue is directly visible.

10. Tears for Emotion and Protection

Your eyes produce three types of tears: basal (lubrication), reflex (irritants), and emotional. Emotional tears have different chemical compositions than the other two.

11. Blue Eyes Are a Mutation

All humans originally had brown eyes until a genetic mutation about 6,000–10,000 years ago led to blue eyes.

12. Peripheral Vision Detects Motion Best

Your peripheral vision is more sensitive to motion than central vision, but it lacks the ability to detect color or fine details.

13. Near-Perfect Autofocus

The eye’s lens changes shape to focus on objects at varying distances, a feature that cameras still struggle to replicate fully.

14. Amazing Data Processor

The human eye and brain work together to process about 36,000 visual messages per hour and interpret them in real time.

15. Eye Color Can Change

Due to aging, trauma, or disease, the color of your eyes may shift slightly over time.

Today I have a post with facts about a game you might know… POKEMON 😉

Here are some fascinating facts about Pokémon:

1. Pokémon Origins

• The word “Pokémon” is short for Pocket Monsters (Poketto Monsutā in Japanese). The franchise was inspired by creator Satoshi Tajiri’s childhood love of collecting insects.

2. The Franchise is One of the Largest in the World

• Pokémon is one of the most successful media franchises of all time, encompassing games, trading cards, TV shows, movies, and merchandise. It has earned over $100 billion in total revenue.

3. First Pokémon Designed

• The first Pokémon ever designed was Rhydon. Many early Pokémon designs, like Rhydon, are still iconic today.

4. Pokémon Typings

• Some type combinations are extremely rare. For example, Dragon/Ice (like Kyurem) and Electric/Fighting (like Iron Hands) are unique or very uncommon.

5. Pikachu Wasn’t the Original Mascot

• Pikachu wasn’t initially intended to be the franchise’s mascot. Clefairy was considered for the role, but Pikachu was chosen for its gender-neutral appeal and cute design.

6. Shiny Pokémon

• Shiny Pokémon, which are rare color variants, were introduced in Pokémon Gold and Silver. The odds of encountering a shiny Pokémon in earlier games were 1 in 8,192.

7. Longest-Running Anime

• The Pokémon anime, which began in 1997, is one of the longest-running animated series in history, with over 1,200 episodes (and counting).

8. Magikarp’s Splash Move is a Joke

• Magikarp’s signature move Splash is a mistranslation. In Japanese, it’s called “Hop,” explaining why it does no damage.

9. Pokémon Sizes Can Be Surprising

• Wailord is the largest Pokémon at over 47 feet long, while Joltik, at just 4 inches, is one of the smallest.

10. Pokémon’s Real-World Inspirations

• Many Pokémon are based on real animals, myths, and folklore. For example, Gyarados is inspired by a Chinese legend about a carp transforming into a dragon.

11. Pokémon with Unique Abilities

• Smeargle is the only Pokémon that can learn the move Sketch, allowing it to permanently copy almost any move in the game.

12. Pokémon in Space

• In 2001, Pokémon was sent into space aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour. Pikachu and Meowth were among the Pokémon trading cards that orbited Earth.

13. MissingNo Glitch

• In the original Pokémon Red and Blue, a famous glitch called MissingNo could be encountered. It became legendary among fans and is often cited as one of the most famous video game glitches.

14. Eevee’s Versatility

• Eevee, known for its multiple evolutions, is one of the most versatile Pokémon, with currently 8 different evolutionary forms.

15. Pokémon Names Are Clever

• Many Pokémon names are puns or portmanteaus. For example, Ekans is “snake” spelled backward, and Arbok is “cobra” spelled backward.

These facts were provided by ChatGPT and I actually learned quite a bit

One more fact:

The current record for the most amount paid for a single card is currently $5,275,000 for a PSA Grade 10 Pikachu Illustrator card!

Hold on to those cards 😉

FUTBOL AMERICANO = “FOOTBALL” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I want to talk about the Detroit Lions AMAZING come from behind victory over the Houston Texans

As I have mentioned previously I am a fan of the NFL and I root for the Detroit Lions

On Sundays I like to spend some time cooking in preparation of the day’s games and will usually watch at least one game (I watch highlights of the other games played that day the next day)

It is a cool vibe having an easy day with the weather getting colder and colder and having something indoors that I look forward to on a weekly basis

Yesterday the Lions were down 23-7 going into the half… no bueno (not good)

BUT

The Lions did not give up and after trailing 16 points the Lions were able to shut out Houston’s offense by allowing zero points in the second half AND even after turning the ball over 5 times that game, were able to score a “Walk Off” field goal as time expired winning the game

This HISTORIC victory represents the type of personality that resonates with how I feel about myself

“Don’t ever say its over if I’m BREATHING”

It is not over until it is over and when you don’t give up, there is still a chance

GO LIONS❕🦁🏈🏆

GOOD MORNING TO THE SON AND THE SKY❕👋🏼

HI = “Привет” (pronounced “pree-VYET”) in RUSSIAN 🇷🇺

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I would like to share that in addition to Spanish, Chinese (Mandarin), French as well as Math & Music, I am now learning Russian

I was also considering (still am) adding Italian, German and Japanese

There are more languages that I am interested in but I will get to those after I have made some progress with the languages I am currently studying

I am already learning one language with a different alphabet (Mandarin) and Russian also has its own unique letters and sounds that form the language

I will leave a few words and the pronunciations of Russian words I have learned so far

• Thanks: Спасибо (Spasibo)

• Welcome: Пожалуйста (Pozhaluysta) – used in the sense of “You’re welcome” as a response to thanks

• He: Он (On)

• She: Она (Ona)

• I am: Я (Ya)

• Here: Здесь (Zdes’)

Notice the unique letters? Pretty cool right?

Я тебя люблю (I LOVE YOU)

VICTORY = “победа” in RUSSIAN 🇷🇺 (pronounced pah-BYEH-dah).

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today’s post is about what we do when celebrating a victory

Did you know that when a blind person celebrates victory they will often put their arms overhead without ever having witnessed anyone displaying a similar reaction?

It makes me think there are natural ways of showing the joy that comes along with a win

Of course there is smiling, physical contact with teammates if celebrating together (high five and or hugs) and joyous shouting too

In the moments immediately after victory is achieved there are a number of things that may take place but one thing I would like to encourage specifically is to say “Good Game” to those who were not victorious

It is a display of good sportsmanship and respect and a reminder to those who won or lost that it is not a sad thing to compete in a game and the loss doesn’t involve the loss of life and can soothe the sting of defeat

My point is this, celebrate your wins anyway you want and consider those who lost in a way that you may include the acknowledgement of their contribution to your win by representing the competition required to experience the victory and one way to do this is by saying “Good Game”

Today I have another post about a Holiday, “Dia de los Muertos” or commonly known as The Day of the Dead

Here are some facts about the holiday

It is a two day celebration (November 01 & 02) that originated in ancient Latin America

November 01 is to honor children who have passed (Day of the Innocents) known as Dia de los Angelitos

November 02 is to honor adults who have passed (Dia de los Muertos)

Families will leave offerings in their homes and at gravesites as tribute to their passed loved ones

A flower called Marigold is left with the tribute done traditionally as a way for the dead to locate the tribute offered

The holiday is seen as not as something sad but as a celebration of life and life lived

Food plays a special role with one item in particular a bread called “Pan de Muerto” that is offered as tribute and eaten by those celebrating the holiday

The holiday is celebrated worldwide and also by those who are not of Latin origin

Today I have a post for you about the holiday recently observed, Halloween

It has origins from Europe from over 2000 years ago

People would wear costumes so they would be unrecognizable to “ghost”

The only holiday celebrated more in America when it comes to money spent is Christmas

The name Halloween comes from the observation of the Holiday on the day before “All Saints Day” and Halloween was known as “All Hallow’s Eve”

Chocolate is the top candy for trick or treating by popularity

Halloween is a fun holiday to celebrate for all ages and I hope you enjoyed Halloween this year

BABY = “BEBE” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I want to talk about first steps

There was a point in your life when you weren’t able to walk

One day you took your first step but you did not walk

After many more steps and tumbles there came a day when you walked

Then you could walk yet from time to time would still fall

Then one day you had the ability to walk without falling

Although you now had the ability to walk, it has been proven that it is possible to fall because of something that occurred

Maybe you fell because you were not paying attention and missed an obstacle or maybe something caused you to fall that had nothing to do with your ability to walk

As you get older you still might miss obstacles (mistakes) and you might get knocked down (uncontrollable external influence)

When you have the ability to walk you have a reminder of what is possible when you continue to try

Never give up

If you fall, rise and continue

GOOD MORNING TO THE SON AND THE SKY❕👋🏼

NEVER = “NUNCA” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I want to talk about getting things done and not meeting “deadlines” (The moment that was presented as a time and date to finish)

Sometimes we don’t get things done by the time we intended

Other times we can be comfortable going beyond a deadline for reasons that include things happened out of your control that caused you not to be able to meet the deadline or the thing that needed to be done with a deadline was not something that needed to occur

Sometimes we miss a deadline but it is still not too late and this is almost always the case when considering what is ultimately important

It may feel like a failure or be upsetting to not meet a deadline but unless it involves the loss of something you can not get back that is of the upmost importance, you will likely get over it sooner than later

There is also something to be said about anxiety caused when a deadline approaches and if it is up to you to get the task done before the last moment you can have the satisfaction of the task being completed and not needlessly suffer if you take care of the task when you are able to instead of having to

One last thing, make sure you do not agree to a deadline if possible that you aren’t sure you can meet. Try to give yourself the appropriate amount of time to complete the task without adding extra stress that doesn’t need to be present while executing the task through completion

Don’t needlessly suffer when possible
