Statistically speaking…

Statistically, the probability of any one of us being here is so small that the mere fact of our existence should keep us all in a state of contented dazzlement.

~ Lewis Thomas (1913–1993). A physician, poet, etymologist, researcher.

  1. Lovely photo and quote. It’s quite sad really that we live with such little appreciation of the extraordinariness of merely being alive, both our own existence and that others too – let alone the fact that we are conscious of this at all.

  2. Awesome picture and amazing quote! It is so true that we don’t appreciate that just being alive is a miracle. We take little things that are big things for granted each and every day. Thanks for this Dave!

    1. Hi Tony. Thank you. I’ve enjoyed your posts too. We both have Michigan connection. I went to NMU in Marquette and my wife and her family were/are from there. Dave
