Creation of Life.
In a moment of passion on a hot humid summer’s night.
Here starts the long wondrous journey of human life.
The passion continues building to the point of no return.
Then a climatic explosion and the release of those sperm.
Oceans of them pushing, shoving and swimming frantically.
A couple might succeed, for the others death is their destiny.
The inevitable elimination of all the very small and weakest.
Fantastic rewards on offer for all the strong and the fittest.
They are each in search of an egg with which they can mate.
They only have a short period, so they have no time to waste.
The odds are stacked against every one of the gallant semen.
If they win their battle for the egg, it could still reject them.
Those who are successful and find the egg and hear the words,
I've been waiting for you please come on in.
For them is a warm welcoming and sensational happy feeling.
For nine months the connection they made will grow and expand.
This is where and how the wondrous journey of life really began.
Tobani (2024).

Now that’s the story of my beginnings, a quite unplanned pregnancy on my mum’s part. My dad did the responsible thing and stayed, for a while and 4 children later moved on to more “love”-filled relationship. The waypoint out. It makes me realise how amazing that journey was, conception, having partaken but not having any memory of it.

Thank you for your kind comments, Very much appreciated as always
You're welcome Tobani!
An interesting journey. If it is a human one in all very few cases, it is only one sperm that wins the race. It is also an issue of luck as to which fallopian tube they take. Read about evolution as well and survival of the fittest which winds out overtime over luck
Thank you for your comment, appreciated as always
