Luck

Let's talk about luck today...

Luck is an interesting factor. Something you don't see, you don't smell, you don't even feel it. I mean whenpeople say they feel lucky... How often are they correct? Luck is so elusive. When you need it most, you never have enough of it. But, you'll never don't need it. We always need it. But are we dependent on it?

I think we hope for luck. But we're not dependent on it. We like to believe in ourself, but when there is no faith left, it naturally falls to luck. Luck is also a scapegoat. Whenever something don't turn the way we like, it's bad luck.

But we can't help but want luck right?

Most people don't know how lucky they are. Haven't someone told you, 'you're soo lucky, you just don't know it!' ? I think it's true. I dunno if it's true. It's just a theory of relativity. If you compare yourself to someone worse off, you're really lucky. To compare with someone with something you want, you become unlucky. It's just lucky and unlucky at the same time. So ironic but yet so natural.

Then again, what's luck and what's fate? If you believe in luck, can you still believe in fate? If something happened and it's fate... then you're not unlucky/lucky. If you believe that something happened because you were lucky, they probably that isn't your fate? Man is just selfish. When we want it to be fate. It will be fate. If we want it to be luck, it will be luck. We will always want the better one.

But which is better?
