Sum Up My World

"Magicians have always been obsessed with creating something out of nothing.
And the highest form of that is to make a life; a perfect life appear from thin air.
And I've always longed to witness an event like that for real ...And then I realised that I have.

The chances of all the circumstances being in place that would lead to two particular people meeting and then them falling in love, are supremely minute.
And then, if they come together to have children; the chance of one particular sperm fertilising one particular egg, and then one particular life emerging is even more unlikely.

This improbability multiplies generation after generation down through your Great Grandparents, and your Grandparents until finally, by chance, your Mother meets and falls in love with a man that is to be your Dad and then from their decision to come together and have children and against those impossible odds its YOU that is born. Your life is a miracle."
