"MOST OF THE THINGS THAT HAPPEN TO A TYPICAL NIGERIAN IS A MIRACLE"

The term "miracle" which is attributed universally to God only and which God alone is able to do in the affairs of we humans on this planet earth has many relative and different meanings around the world today. What is considered in one part of the world to be a miracle or God's divine intervention may be simply treated in another part of the human world as a normal natural event of this life that has no element of the divine involvement in it. Miracles to a typical Nigerian are never miracles at all to a typical American or a westerner.

To secure a job in Nigeria after you have graduated with a university degree in a country that has an unemployment rate of 50% and with millions of unemployed and unemployable graduates roaming the streets for years without securing any means of livelihood is a miracle in Nigeria. To get an ordinary visiting visa that does not give anyone the rights to live and work in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom or in any other developed or advanced nations today in 2013 in Nigeria is a miracle and a divine intervention to an ordinary Nigerian. To buy a used and a highl mileage old model automobile that is equipped with the outdated technologies in it in Nigeria today is a miracle in a country where 80% live on $1-$2 a day budget and millions earn poverty wages in the private and public sectors of the nation's economy. To own your own home in Nigeria is a miracle in a nation where home ownership is not available to tens of millions of the ordinary Nigerians today. A Nigerian woman that did not have an access to the 21st century health care and was declared barren for 18 years after her marriage in Nigeria had a very rare lifetime opportunity to travel to the United States where doctors in America put here on the fertility drugs. Today, she is a proud mother of three beautiful children and to her, this experience was an act of modern advanced     medicine.

The human universe will never have one standard globally accepted definition of what miracle is or is not. What is accepted as a miracle in one part of the world will be treated in another part of the world as a regular human event. So whatever is humanly imposible to an individual in one part of the world will be considered a miracle when it becomes a reality and what is humanly possible for another human being in another part of this world will not be considered a miracle.
