Fair trade...

The way he figured, everyone gets at least one miracle in their lifetime. Like, he will probably never be struck by lightening, or win a Nobel Prize, or become the ruler of the world, or spontaneously combust. But if you consider all the unlikely things together, at least one of them will probably happen to each of us. He could have seen it rain frogs. He could have stepped foot on Mars. He could have been eaten by a whale. He could have married a prince or survived months at sea. But, here he is, hoping for something far less elaborate. His ultimate miracle was different. Something as simple as starting a family of his own.
