I don't think life is all luck by any means. Luck is very random and chancy. Most of the time, we create our own luck, our own good fortune with the choices we make. So we get what we make for ourselves. At least that's been true for me.

I do think luck can sometimes happen. Like lottery wins, for instance, or amazing recoveries from illnesses against the odds. But in most areas, including most other financial and medical circumstances, I think we create our own accomplishments through the choices we make.

i think lucks everything...

every breathe u take is by luck...u could walk out of ur house and be hit by a crashing plane...luckily u dont

unless of course ur religious...then u belive in everythings preordained...and free will is actually a cover up for slavery...

But being hit by a crashing plane or run over by a truck--and hence losing your ability to draw those lucky breaths--is one of those very random, remote, chancy things like winning the lottery or recovering miraculously. Bad luck can sometimes happen, too, just like good. Fortunately, the majority of the time the bad luck doesn't occur. Just like unfortunately, the majority of the time the super good stuff doesn't happen, either. Such is life. The majority of the rest of the time, we're making our own luck.

so ur saying luck does rule our lives...

[birdgirl73]

No, I'm saying we rule our lives. And that luck--good and bad alike--factors in only in relatively rare instances.

Well, mama always told me life is like a box of chocolates






but on a serious note. I really think life is made up of the choices that u make. and u will almost always look back and wonder what would have happened if u chose to do one thing differently that could have gave you a totally different life then the one u led. Im sure if you look back theres lots of time you oculd have chose to do something differently and it would have made a life changing differece.











wait, what was the question again

[dryst]

u dont belive in fate?

I believe in a combination of the two. You control your decisions, your decisions control your sitiations, but if lady luck wants something to happen, you lose all control.

I believe that the whole universe is being controlled by a force called nature. I believe that luck is simply the circumstances that surprise us when we don't understand where the flow of time will take us.

Bah... it's too hard to describe it... I'm not right in the head anyway, but if you are catching on to what I'm saying it would make perfect sense.

i understand, its all about balance...

if luck really does exist then that falsifies karma...
