WHATS THE ODD?

Often I would look at the sky, hoping to see something different, something extraordinary, something special, something that would inspire me to believe in the "although-the-odd-is-low-but-it-is-still-possible" perspective.

At times, the sky does look beautiful - the formation of the cloud, the way the cloud changes its colour in evening from orange to pink and then to grey and eventually to darkness. The sky is really beautiful, especially in autumn. But after a period of time everything just seems to be too predicable. Just like the cloud wont change from pink to grey and then to yellow or green. It's just scientifically impossible. But that is something I am really hoping to see, but whats the odd?

All these years, whenever I step out of my house at night, I would look up to the sky hoping to see a shooting star. I dont know whats the correct number, but I bet there will be thousands of them shooting across our sky every night, or may be every hour. Considering that, the probability of seeing one should be high, but whats the 'genuine odd' of seeing one? I never, NEVER ever 'unintentionally' seen one before. Of course, I have seen some over the years, those when the news is telling everyone, thats too 'commercialise' anyway.

And then whats the odd of coming all the way from Malaysia and get to know a person that seems to have known for ages? The odd is low, but it is still possible. At least I know it is possible :)
