LJ Idol: Salty

[dakotawitch]

It is a curious fact of human biology that we need salt to live. It is salt that drives the engines of our cells, that fuels a myriad bodily processes that happen without our awareness every minute of every day to keep us alive. Consumed principally in the form of table salt, NaCl, just a few milligrams of this vital nutrient each day keeps us

Beautiful.I especially loved the amniotic sac paragraph. You really gave the term "Salty" a new meaning :)

I like how earthy and vital you took this, and it's oh so true.

Salt is used in pagan cleansing or banishing rituals. I find it interesting that so many cultures have raised it to such importance.

Salt is essential for life. I once earned a three day stay in hospital for extremely low potassium(salt). It had given me an erratic heartbeat. I never salted my food because of existing heart issues. I love to drive my docs mad! Hehehehe

Anyhoo- the whole point of my TMI is- this post is truth. Without it we, as well as many other creatures, would perish. Hugs and peace~~~

A lovely sentiment! I especially like the phrase, surf the aminotic tide into life. :)
