Day 18

I know that in life we wish that there were instruction manuals to most everything we do. So what if we did have manuals or better yet, picture diagrams (I like pictures). Would it really help? The image below is of an Audi V12 TDI (Turbo Diesel Injection) engine. Audi will be using this engine in their newer race car called the Audi R8. If you click on the picture you will get an enlarged view of the engine. So... even though we have this great diagram of an engine, can we really put it together and make it run? I submit that we cannot. Just as life continues on and we continue to learn, so it is with an engine. There are specifics that the eye cannot see just from a picture but can really only be fully understood by experiencing life first hand.


Now I know that all of you are in awe of my super image of a "perfume bottle" here. I know, I know, you may be asking your self, "How does he do that?" well, lets just say, it's MAGIC. So we have this other diagram here. It is simply demonstrating how a sample of a perfume bottle may work. There really is no further explanation needed on how to use this. So do we really need instructions on how to apply perfume or cologne?


What about "Pop-Tarts?" There is actually instructions on how to prepare one of those scrumptious breakfast pastries using a toaster. I'm sure there are many other examples out there on various explanations or directions on how to work complicated or simplistic devices. My idea is this, sometime to understand something in life we need to experience it for ourselves so that we might be able to help others along their way in life. And sometimes we just know what to do and no explanation is needed.
