I count everything. Even numbers, odd numbers, multiples of 10. I count the ticks of the clock i count the tocks of the clock I count the lines between the lines on a sheet of paper. I count the broken beats of my heart I count my pulse and my blinks and the number of tries it takes to inhale enough oxygen for my lungs. I stay like this I stand like this I count like this until the feeling stops. Until the tears stop spilling, until my fists stop shaking, until my heart stops aching. There are never enough numbers. . Tahereh Mafi
About This Quote

Numbers are a fascinating part of our lives. Numbers play a huge role in each and every aspect of our lives, from our businesses to our finances and even social interactions. When we think about numbers, we usually think about the number of things that we do. It is so easy to get wrapped up in numbers and spend all of our time focusing on the numbers.

This can be bad because you can lose track of what is really important. However, it can also be good if you know how to use numbers to your advantage. For example, if you want to impress someone at a party or impress your girlfriend or boyfriend, focus on specific details about your life instead of the number of things you have done.
