The Real Academy defines the word imposible like something that doesn't have faculty or means to become or happen . And defines unlikely like something implausable , that doesn't base itself on a sensible reason . Having to choose , I like the unlikely more than the imposible, like everyone else, I guess . The unlikely hurts less and leaves a little corner for hope , for epic . That David beat Goliat was unlikely , but it happened . An africanamerican living in the white house was unlikely , but it happened . Nadal stealing first place from Federer , a newsagent becoming princess , 12-1 against Malta , love , relationships , feelings; none of that bases itself on a sensible reason; that's why I don't like to talk about impossible loves , but rather unlikely loves , because it comes from the word likely, and even if chances are it won't happen; it still could . While there's a posibility , even half of a posibility in a million , it's still worth trying .
