The odds of you existing are 1 in 4 quadrillion!
To put this into perspective, the odds of your lineage remaining unbroken so you could be conceived is 1 in 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.
All those zeroes hammer home the insane odds of your existence. Yet, here you are. Alive and well reading this brief essay on a website hosted in cyberspace. Such is the absurdity of reality.
You might forget from time to time how unique you are. A combination of atoms, stardust and cells the likes of which the world has never seen before and will never see again.
You're a limited edition, a one-off, a collector's item. All of us, all 7 billion people who inhabit our gigantic rock in outer space are one of a kind.
Despite sharing 99% of your DNA with everyone else, less than 1% accounts for the differences between you and everyone else.
Such a small number with such a big impact. Your differences combine to make you, unashamedly you.
Your existence is a miracle. You have a unique voice, a unique outlook and a unique appearance. All of which combines to become your superpower.
The beauty of your existence is you have an opportunity to offer a perspective no one has ever had before. To change the world in your own small way.
It may have been said before, it may have been written before, it may have been done before, but it's never been done by you before.
Your uniqueness gives you a new perspective. Don't hide it away like Clark Kent.
Let your red cape flow like Superman and embrace your superpower.
Amazing! Thank you for the reminder.
