"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered.” (The Wind in the Willows)

Fish :)

For those of you who may not know (I'm sure you would be able to guess by the time you've read this post), I'm a Zoo and Wildlife Biology major.  Put simply, I love animals.  Anyway, I'm taking a class called Vertebrate Zoology this semester and we just finished a midterm that covered the diversity, anatomy, function, and everything else that you would ever want to know about fish.  While it was a ton of information--and here comes the bio major in me--it was actually quite fascinating.  I never knew how complex and unique the systems in a fish are.  I decided at the end of class one day that if I ever wanted to be an animal for a day, I would want to be a shark. Weird, huh? ;-) But seriously, they have such acute senses, etc. that I think it would be fascinating to see the world through their eyes.

Okay, I'll stop before I totally bore you to death.  ;-)  This is just another way that I see God's hand in creation.  It reminds me of the Bible verse:

"Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows." —Matthew 10: 29-31
