here’s life

Ok, most people can cross their eyes pretty easy–just look at your nose, or a paperclip an inch from your face. But can you make your eyes go outward? I was able to do it. Here’s how: Take two of your fingers, two pens or two somethings that are similar in shape and color and hold them parallel to each other an inch apart. Now, relax and look beyond them to make the two objects superimpose on one another. If you need to, move the objects together until you can get them to match. Once you have a good match–you can see the center combination object pretty clearly, slowly move the objects apart, a little at a time, each time looking farther away, relaxing more and more, getting the center image to match up before going on. Repeat this until your fingers are farther apart than you eyes. I got up to 5 or 6 inches, but I had to pretty much put myself to sleep to do it–I was snapping in and out of consciousness to get my fingers to sit on top of each other. Hurray for meetings on tired days!
