Randomness of Luck? Is there such a thing? It's really hard to tell. Some believe it's what they hold in life. A great family that they have created. What job they have that makes it best for them to succeed to where they are today. Maybe if it weren't for them playing the lottery or power-ball that particular day, they wouldn't be where they are today either! Who really knows? There are people that believe in luck no matter what it is. Especially how it got them to their fortune large or small. They insist that luck got them there no matter what anyone else believes.

Sure people are lucky to have their family, though, remember that this was most likely made from a decision and they are just lucky enough to have such a wonderful life and everyone is healthy. Naturally they wouldn't change it for anything in the world. Hey, neither would I!

Some would say that playing the cards, lottery, power-ball, etc., won and they sure were lucky. Again, that was another decision on their part. The numbers/cards were picked and you just happen to have the numbers. Were you lucky? I think if it involves winning money (which we all like to have)then we think we were lucky. But, remember that, you made that decision. Were the answers in the cards? Were you happy with the results of taking a chance to the thoughts of an impulsed decision? Sure you were. Now, this randomness of luck has you coming back for more and this time you're NOT winning. Is it luck now? One has a thought and acts on it. But we don't always win in life. Now that is in the cards!

There are the fortune tellers as well. How do they know your lucky numbers before you do? What's wrong with this? Our curiosity gets the best of us with this one. Just one more to draw us in thinking we're going to win this one. They pull us in and then again we make the decision to try it. If the numbers are right, do we have a lucky day tomorrow like they stated we would in the horoscope as well? Now come on...We know the answer to that one as well.

If we believe in luck, shouldn't it just be there for us to have and not to think that others will be able to give it to us? The ones that are really lucky are getting lucky from us! Think about it!
