Love and appreciate your life. You are SPECIAL. Do you know why?
Well, everything had to happen and align PERFECTLY over hundreds of thousands of years for you to even be here:
Your parents had to meet, have a relationship that worked, and want kids. And so did each of their 2 sets of parents (4 people). And so did each of their 4 sets of parents (8 people). And so did each of their 8 sets of parents (16 people). And so on, and so on, and so on, for hundreds of thousands of years. Hundreds of thousands of years where there were many wars, deaths, violence, disease, starvation/famine, persecution, etc., etc., etc. Any one small, trivial change in all those hundreds of thousands of years and you would not be here. Any one broken link, for whatever reason, in those hundreds of billions of links and you would not be here.
So, the odds of you not being here is something on the order of one trillion to one (and just to emphasize the numerical magnitude of that – one trillion is 1,000,000,000,000). So, yes, you are special and your life is a gift – because you won the lottery of life against overwhelming odds: you are that 1 out of 1,000,000,000,000 that is here today living and breathing.
As such, there’s no reason to be stressed or otherwise negative about your life. And there’s no reason to treat others badly. Your life is a gift, and you are special because you are here – and that goes for everyone else that is here today as well. So, don’t forget it. And make it a point to always remember this.
Do something special, wonderful, and amazing with your life. And love, appreciate, and cherish your life each and every day. Because you are here. And nothing else matters.
I wrote a similar post back in 2018 – but when I shared this with my new Spanish friends, I simplified things a bit and think this version might be better. They really seemed to like it, so I thought I’d share this version with you as well.
