You will have to actively birth it. I don't know why, but I imagined it would be jelly-like in texture and sort of flop out. I can confirm, having now seen many placentas, including my own, that this is not the case. It's actually quite chunky and firm. If you …

She's filled with a level of awe that allows her to constantly expand her awareness and imagination for what's possible in this little corner of our world. I'd never met anyone like her before, and I still don't think I've met anyone who can match this ability of hers. It …

But as Whitman said, we're not just one thing: We're multitudes. Recent research confirms this observation. Scholars of core constructs originally thought that each of us has an innate slate of traits--we're introverted or extroverted, passive or assertive, open or closed.

This is something that doesn't sneak up on you if you're aware of your body, but we've all been there--on the side of the court (or trail), panting and waiting to recover. Long-distance runners, swimmers, soccer players, and pretty much all elite athletes know that the key to avoiding getting …
