Randomness

Do you believe things are random? Random thoughts cross your mind at random hours, coincidences happen on a random day, inventions made out of random device found on a random street, defeating science, bending our strict mechanical workings.

Throw all rules.

We happened to be born to random parents, chosen by some random supreme being. We happened to be born in this random skin, on this random continent, on that random date, hour and time. Consider this, I am stating the irony, the rule of chaos rules the universe. No one really knows what's happening or what will happen in the next instant. There's no such thing as logic. You can fly, I can walk on water. People laughed when you told them one day you'd be afloat in the air without suspension. Look what a random Yuri Gagarin did.

Here we are. This world, sputtered out of randomness.

Eh, i have one random story to share.. when i studied in malaysia, i lost my matriculation card during the first week so i made a report to the university.. and on my way back, there's this girl i randomly sat with in the lecture hall a day before, who found my card.. she said a kid of a lecture who's playing in the park found it and passed it to her when she walked in the park..

i just can't believe.. first, the possibility of me sitting with her, her passing the park, the kid playing and found the card, then passing it to her and me bumping into her on my way back.. one more thing, USM is almost as big as NUS too..

That's how i got my card back..cool isn't it? =P

Kiran, agree I so and...

Indra, sure!

Diah, gile! That's so cool. Maybe it's reverse engineering? Life's events are all pre-destined to be seemingly random but they actually fit perfectly in the end (in the beginning, actually, where we all started, nothingness)! :D

M, it sure does :) Glad to see you again!
