Impossibilities

I. When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.  
II. The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.  
III. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
- Arthur C. Clarke's Three Laws

What can we say about impossibilities? We believe some things, are not possible to happen or to do, but what do we know actually about impossibilities? Are they really not possible?

Recently i got a lot of things in my mind and i realized that, as we grow older, we tend to think something is easily misunderstood as impossible. We imagined, fantasized a lot of things back then, but then what happened when we're adult? I feel like sometimes i kind of lost. But then to realized that the thing i need to do is to re-think.

We know, as we grow older, things got complicated, but seriously if you think of it again, that's not the truth. The truth is everything is always complicated back then, and now. It's only a matter of how our perception sees them. As a kid, we didn't focus only on one thing, we saw things, but we saw whole-earthly.

We know as we grow older, we see things easily as impossible, but that's not the truth. To remind what Clarke's said in the three laws 'When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.' the question is, what makes them impossible? As myself, i often questioning myself, why did i kept stating something as impossible, but then we all know, the reason why we keep saying something impossible is because we're all scared.

We're all scared to something that we don't understand.

Maybe we're afraid to know the truth, or maybe we just too afraid to find the truth. Both of them are the same, but really, all we need is to keep aside of that thing in our mind. Even if you're afraid of it, just believe in the possibilities, even if you think it's not possible.

Maybe all you need is a little magic.
