Sometimes the cause and the treatment of a condition may be the same!
The same thing can be poison or nectar!
The same water in dehydration is nectar while in heart failure is, well dangerous!
In ENT there is a complication called the oro antral fistula where you have fistula or abnormal communication between the oral cavity and the maxillary sinus or antrum. The interesting point here to note is that sometimes this is a complication of a surgery or surgical approach called the Caldwel Luc! More interesting is that sometimes the treatment is also by the same approach! The cause and the cure is the same in this case!
There’s a process called Photodecomposition!
This is a chemical reaction in which compounds are broken down by photons. The process is also known as photodissociation or photolysis. Any photon with a high wavelength can cause this reaction, including visible light!
The process is responsible for the creation of our ozone!
The ozone in the Earth’s atmosphere is created by photodecomposition
Ultraviolet light strikes oxygen molecules made up of two oxygen atoms
(02), and breaks them into separate atoms.
They then combine with unbroken 02 molecules to form ozone (03)!
Then again that is routine! What is unusual is that this same process causes the destruction of ozone in the earth’s atmosphere!
So the same process which creates also destroys the ozone layer!
Now do not get into the specifics, the root point here is that sometimes what is your greatest strength can also become your greatest weakness!
Being kind can be your strength but then if you are liable to be manipulated for your kindness then it becomes your weakness!
Then again you can be kind and generous and just don’t have any expectations and you will not get hurt!
Like J R D Tata! Remembering legends at the start of the year!
Shubh ratri…
