Google doesn't know everything
I hear it a lot from people. Don't know? Ask google.
I've heard it often said while out "Google knows everything". I've had people look at me funny when I say "No it doesn't."(to be fair, i like to research things and this upcoming example would not be the first time I've run into google being useless in a search)
When I was pregnant I worried about standing in front of the microwave. That feeling, that slight indescribable feeling you get standing close to a microwave not all that unlike when you get an x ray, what if it was bad for the baby?(it is by the way, just like my doctor said back then, don't stand in front of it for hours or prop you belly touching it- you need quite a bit of exposure for it to mattet but yeah). Just much more toned down but also different in it's way but sort of close?
There's also that feeling when they put you in a cat scan-which sucks -but anyone whose ever had one should know what I'm talking about.
Anyway. Sleeping with my eyes completely covered, recently, while meditating, I realized that without sound to tell me or my eyes able to percieve visble light, that while faint I could subtly feel the difference(as i doubt my poor lightbulb held the same heating ability as the sun, let's also argue temp isn't a valid argument either-this entire thing was basically an accident as far as conditions went but it raised some really good questions as far as I'm concerned).
All of these. Are examples of different kinds of light. Feeling them means we are feeling light. I had just not realized it was possible to feel visible light. Not as a psychological reaction to the visual change but in absence of any visual or hearing cues to indicate the change.
When I tried googling... I don't think google even understood the question despite the fact this is apparently a common enough search. "Do people feel the difference between light and dark" All I got was articles all with the same content in different words with nothing about why or how our bodies interact with light beyond our eyes.
Not even another kind of "light".
Apparently light is electromagnetic waves on different frequencies and visible light just creates a visible reaction. ¬~¬ Still nothing about why it's possible to feel the difference between when a light is on or off on ones skin or why we can physically feel any frequency at all and nothing about if everyone does or if you just have to be in a special sort of focus to even notice the more subtle stuff.
Nothing.
It's important to remember that google is not some sort of information god. It doesn't know everything nor can it direct you to every piece of information out there on the internet. It's a tool. Tools have limits.
