Philosophy Wire: Cells… Doing nothing…

Scientists have linked obesity to a number of different neuropsychiatric disorders, including anxiety and depression, but the exact nature of this relationship is still poorly understood, making treatment difficult. New research now suggests the answer may have to do with an overabundance of "zombie cells". Zombie cells, also known as senescent cells, are semi-dormant cells that build up in certain parts of the brain, impairing normal function in that area. [1] A simple example on how we tend to see things the wrong way. Referring to cells which cause so much as “zombie” cells. Because our lenses for life are distorted. We like to refer to "doing" in a sense of providing an outcome. We cannot see any value in doing nothing. But in reality, even when you do nothing, you do something. Or even more, inactivity is the most active thing you can do, since it is then when you do nothing while you could be doing anything. Try to stop and breath. And inside the hectically moving cosmos, you will see things which do not move at all. And it is only then that you will realize, that you were standing still all that time...
