How many Layers do you have?

I have been going through tweets by my friends in the past few minutes.
Reading tweets by people sometimes is like watching their lives on a screen, at least for those who have something to say per second.

This one in particular caught my attention and you may ask me why? " I am examining the layers of my life". It tickled my fancy and so I replied " How many layers do you have?".

Now back to the reason why the question caught my attention. It reminded me of the study of the skin in biology class. In elementary school we learned about the two main layers of the skin, the Dermis and the Epidermis. We had to draw simple diagrams but as we progressed into senior class in secondary school we had to do more complex diagrams showing,blood vessels connective tissues, sweat glands,sweat pores, hair follicles, oily glands and so on.
I can remember the first time I glanced at a more detailed diagram of the skin how dizzy I felt instantly. I would not say I was scared but I would rather flip over to the next page and study something else because I felt it was too complicated for me to understand let alone know all its layers and functions.

The skin is the largest organ of the human body. Our skin reflects the types of genes we possess, and our state of health either good or bad. The blood vessels contain nutrients and all the requirements to help protect us from UltraViolet rays, extreme temperatures, injury and infections.

To drive the story home, self examination is useful, as many times as we get the chance.

Just as we exercise, ensure an adequate daily diet for nourishment, a bath and we use cosmetics and all kinds of skin care products, we need to feed ourselves daily with thoughts and get involved in activities that would shed out excellence.

We are to borrow from the past,the experiences that polish us.
Forget the failures and only using them as a sponge to scrub the dead layers off our "life skin"

Once again the inspiring tweet " I am examining the layers of my life" I answer this time
"I am examing the layers of my life too!"
