Journal 67: A Miracle


The word miracle had a different meaning from its contemporary usage. It used to be connected to something considered as a God’s work, but now people just use it to represent an extraordinary event. A miracle may be angelic, surreal ( supernatural), but not entirely unreal. It’s usually a good thing I think because it just sounds awkward when someone associates this word with a bad thing; maybe it’s because this word had a connection with Christianity. The very main difference between a miracle and something fortunate or unusual would be that miracle is something that cannot be explained by sciences, while something fortunate and something unusual are still supposed to obey physical laws. I do believe in miracles because I create miracles. Not really but I want to be able to do that though. I think that the fact that I exist and I was born and now I’m a one single entity on this world, compared to all the other pre-lives that weren’t born, is pretty miraculous. There’s such a high chance that I would have been a totally different person, so I think there’s something more than statistics and probabilities here. Also, the process of the emergence of life is pretty miraculous as well. A reaction that’s randomly created got to keep going on and then created a continuous reaction that could maintain a homeostasis is, I have to say, pretty miraculous. Again, I think there’s something more than probability.
