I won.  I won it all beyond my wildest imaginations.  It had been given to me, like an inheritance of grandeur being declared and sanctioned as my own.  My father had prepared me for this great venture.  I was groomed for the service of this righteous place and honored by the resolve that I was considered the best.  Blessed and chosen.. The time had come.  One in a million.  The chances were vast.  I stood in awe and filled with a humbling hope for the future of the evolved dream that I carried with me.  My father had given me the gift of an infinite freedom.  The possibilities were unlimited.  The probabilities were indefinitely immense in all of the articulated qualitative quantities of the physical world.
