What if I told you that your success is indeed a product of two contradictions? So why is the nature of your success contradictory?

To quantify it, let's take a look around and observe our observable universe which has a diameter of around 93.016 billion light-years . Inside this diameter, as per the New Horizons space probe , there are at least 100 billion galaxies . "Billion" can often be overlooked because of our inability to imagine the number of zeroes that it encompasses. 100 Billion = 100,000,000,000 Inside these 100 billion galaxies, there are almost one billion trillion stars. 1 Billion Trillion = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Even if one percent of these stars are like our sun, there are still 10 Million Trillion sun-like stars; 10 Million Trillion = 10,000,000,000,000,000,000 And if 1% of them have an Earth-like planet revolving around them then there are almost 100,000 trillion planets in the observable universe which, theoretically speaking, could give birth and sustain LIFE! 100,000 Trillion = 100,00...
