The God of Probability

Just think..

When we drive to work, how sure are we that we will reach our office safely? Well, if we are so sure, why we are so careful as if something 'might' happen?

It bothers me when we have to be careful all the time while we are told that somebody is actually watching over us and keep us safe.

Probably that is why I choose to believe in a personal god called god of probability. Everything is uncertain, everything is 50-50. Believe it or not, it is a reality. Before we start our daily journey to our office, at the back of our head we always have the feeling that we may or we may not get to our office safely, therefore we drive so carefully to increase the chance of getting to the office safely. However, we ill never get a 100% certainty because the god of probability says that there will always the external factors that we could not control. Therefore, even with 1% uncertainty, we still have the probability of not getting to our office safely. Regardless of what kind of faith that we have, the god of probability is always the one that decides the result.

If somebody ask me how this god of probability look like, well, I will answer, ask yourself how a 'not sure' look like....
