Are All Things Possible Indeed? (2)
"From what is observed, the things we see, do they not put a question mark to the believe that all things possible?"
Often, we are faced with the truism: all things are possible. Nonetheless, when we analyse critically the many vicissitudes that pervade life, together with the flowing circumstances which man himself is warped in, we would consider negotiating a sudden halt; one that is apt for the urgency to very well examine the workability of this much taunted aphorism in the midst of the oodles of natural expositions that have come to inundate us and carve up our convictions.
There is the immediate impulsion to deny it; for at the end, what we come to discover from the vintage of our limited realm of observance is that there are actually some certainties which are better left in the imaginations. Everything is not possible as we are sought out to believe by the emotive claims of the wise; and that on its own is the result of a factual, careful and hands on examination of natural phenomena.
Let’s explore on this...
Everything is possible indeed is not an axiom that is asserted with an unshaken confidence; the realities of things seem to enervate it. Who says it is possible to recover spilt milk? What truth is there in universal possibility when the bereaved are lost in weeping despair at the demise of their loved one? Who could confidently assure a man that he can restore a wasted time?
These are some obvious situations whose impossibilities do not require a trip to the moon to ascertain. The leverage of this denial is further intensified in the palpability of what could be proffered by our senses. And all of them appear to lead our acceptability far from the vicinity of such view because of their tangibility; they heavily betray man’s observed inability to exert this belief into living proofs.
Nonetheless, with all the denials that our practical senses could provide us over the possibility of all things, do they stand strongly to discredit such assertion, the assertion that all things are possible?
The reality of our limited knowledge, though, might provide us with seemingly acceptable basis for undermining the concept of universal possibility—and to which we could gladly yield to its convincing attractions— but in sincerity, should we be so circumscribed so much as to allow our decisions over alleged facts be determined by the limitations provided by our reserved scope of awareness?
