for a sperm to meet an egg, it means your mom met your dad. But it's not just them. Think about how many people had to meet, fall in love, and make love for you to be here. Here's the answer: a lot. Like A LOT a lot. Before they had you, none of your ancstors drowned in a pond, got strangled by a python, or skied into a tree. None of your ancestors choked on a peach pit, was trampled by buffalo, or got their tie stuck in an assembly line. None of your ancestors was a virgin. you are the most modern, brightest spark of years and years and years of survivors who all had to meet each other in order to eventually make you."
