The Sperm And the Egg

There were about 100 million sperms that raced all the way and you- you were the one that won the race and got life as its price. The others simply are lost and get dissolved into nothingness this is the success story of each one of us, right?

Contrary to the above-mentioned belief, what if you were the egg all the time. What if you were meant to be? What if those millions of sperms were nothing but life? Let’s have a different approach towards it.

The ‘meant to be’ life

If you think you have won the race, and you were the sperm with the best vigor, then you might be true. What was the egg for, then? It seems like the patriarchy also left its footprints somewhere in fertilization too. But anyway, now it is time to look at it from a different point of view.

The egg waiting for life

Who you are is already been decided halfway, as the egg cell has half of the genome. You are alone, and waiting for your other half to come- the sperm. It doesn’t matter which one out of those 100 million. You are already there. You are huge, preparing yourself to inhale life and begin the journey of growing up. Cell-by-cell.

You’re not lucky, you were meant to be

Humans have the ability to leave everything on their luck, and when something works out for them, they think they are ‘lucky’ enough. But hey, not every time! Your life is precious and you are alive today reading this little article simply because it was meant to be.

So you were not just a sperm that won the race out of 100 million others, rather you were ‘one’ all the way, separated into two cells-the egg and the sperm. And they, like a magnet’s two poles, the north, and the south, were always meant to attract each other.

The sperm had half of you, therefore, it was mandatory for it to fuse with you and re-unite the two parts together. As if, a force that kindled life in you, and its sole duty was to bring you closer to yourself, and just like that- you were there! Always meant to be.
