Alice's Adventures and this Wonderland~

Alice was tired. Alice was bored. 

And the book, into which her sister pored -

Had neither color nor songs of tre corde!

So she followed the rabbit into its abode.

She reached the Caroll's function's discontinuity

And fell, fell and fell down~

And many a times she became a giant 

and many a times shrunk with her gown.

She did come back but who would understand

That the world she saw was more than just a wonderland

Notwithstanding, the beauty of Lewis Caroll's imagination and its correlation with great and difficult to understand mathematical concepts, I proceed~

The first Alice was a full-fledged man :P 

He built his own microscope and peered down the dead and perhaps dark cork. He saw room like arrangements and called them cells.

Since then, boring biologists have wondered at their own ignorance of this mighty wonderland. We hardly know anything about it and science doesnot yet comprehend even the extent of this wonderland.

This normally invisible, wonderfully microscopic wonderland, represents largest mass of living creatures, bringing our mighty forms of visible life and our own brains to shame. 

We might plant trees all over and protest! But the largest chunk of our breathing oxygen comes from Cyanobacteria, who also give the blue-green seas, their color. 

We might boast our beautiful minds but it takes one Naegleria fowleri to chew away our brain cells-unchecked!

These amusing oddities were first to come alive and I believe they will outlive any other life form.  We are  only beginning to realize the extraordinary power of these tiny co-inhabitants of earth and their role on our planet. Some even believe that our own future will largely depend on our understanding and collaboration with these tiny heroes. Having laid these claims, I will gather all the doubts, and in new posts discuss and reason them.

PS:
I am amazed! I am compelled. Never before did 'knowing' strike me as vividly and stun me this much. Now it has!
Last semester, /*has been a tear-jerking movie*/ I learned much about some unsung heroes, and I am so impressed with them that I think it is my duty to pay them due respect.
Here I will pore down my respect and my little information - one by one- in chunks.
Slowly the bard shall sing more about these tiny, often ignored, mocked and feared microbes.
Some day I hope they will get their due honor and we will learn to live by their side, without hurting or being hurt!
All the best!
