It simply means that achieving something beyond usual is a choice which is determined not by circumstances but by one's own will. Impossibility arises when someone is aiming too high and viewed in one's perception that the assurances of reaching is below average. It all depends in one's guts and determination how he takes the risk and continue his mission or stick to what he believe that it is really impossible without even acting or trying. I guess, that's it, the only difference does not lies in the possibility or impossibility itself but in one's decision and determination whether or not to take the risk of trying.
These circumstances happen to me every now and then. That sometimes I feel the odds of achieving something because it was already in my mind set the impossibility of reaching. That sometimes I'm not growing nor learning because of the fear to dive in. It was later that I realized that I was wrong, absolutely wrong.
One experience...
I was an ordinary girl who lived in a remote place somewhere in Bukidnon. I haven't had a clue what was the world looked like outside Bukidnon. Illiterate in modernized gadgets, Knew nothing how the city looked like. I was 13 years old, an innocent girl who believed that mingling with the city people, studying in a big university, adapting to another cultures and beliefs were impossible for me to cope. As time fades, experiences gathered, knowledges acquired and parents inspired, I took the risk of exploring the different world far from my world, far from my belief and understanding, of all the tears invested I found myself growing and learning, and surviving to the world which I thought was impossible to reach. For some people they don't had a hard time adapting places to places but for me it was a big deal that later through determination, I found myself with them, mingling and laughing and sharing. I was so happy...Weird story but it was true how I viewed the world back then....
