Think about it

Human beings are like a cassette recorder.
They store every single story, every event,
every infection, and every injury.
Imagine what it would be like
if you were to use the same tape
over and over again without ever erasing
what was there before. Then you
wouldn’t be able to understand anything anymore.

A human being with a chronic disease
is in this state.
Certain remedies can help remove especially troublesome
noises and then the cells can once again
understand what they are supposed to do
until finally we can recognize
a melody again on the tape.
