Just

March 19, 2014 your body is your temple 16 mile meditative run,”You know the Model of your Car. You know just what its powers are. You treat it with a deal of care, nor tax it more than it will bear. However, as to self-that is different. Your mechanism may be bent, your carburetor gone to grass, your engine just a rusty mass. Your wheels may wobble and your cogs be handed over to the dogs, and on you skip, and skid, and slide, without a thought of things inside. What fools indeed we mortals are to lavish care upon a Car, with ne'er a bit of time to see about our own machinery!”
