A Story by Ari M.
"

I couldn't stop thinking about this simple thought of 2 being so complex.

"

3 is the magic number. 7 is the lucky number. 1 is the winning number. 2, however, is the number that is misunderstood. To be misunderstood could either be an advantage or a disadvantage, depending on what side of the line you are standing. To you, maybe, it may be your favorite or it may very well just what 1+1 is.

 

The controversial thing is that 2 is everywhere. There must always be 2 sides to something controversial. Surely, it is just a silly symbol that people use to understand in order to pass a class or pay a bill. Surely, I am give this prime number too much praise. However, unknowingly, we already worship the ground that 2 scrapes its curved beak upon.

 

Yin and Yang are two. Male and Female are two. On and off, light and dark, day and night. The world we have come to know lives in pairs and that is the simple truth. We depend on our other half. This doesn't necessarily mean that we depend on our "true love". Think bigger. We, as humans, are in more than one relationship. The air we breathe out is the air that our earth breathes in and vice versa. Every thing needs two and none more. This process is perfection. If a meteorite didn't squash itself into our planet, blowing away the dinosaurs, would we be here today? Would I be writing this? Would you be reading it?

 

Even melting all confusion away, and reducing it down to what we can see even if we are blind, we have two eyes, two nostrils, two hands, two feet, two of every finger, two of every tooth, two ears, two halves of the brain. Could it be that the most simple fact can be underestimated? I may be wrong, but, in my opinion, 2 is a bigger number than we can fathom.
