Writer's Block: Happy go lucky

I can't answer for others, but I tend to have the most random luck in the world. One day my car engine might blow up, the next I might win a contest. One day I might be sick, the next I might be...well, who knows?

I have friends and family members who seem to have more luck in certain things than others. Some are lucky in love, some are lucky in finance, some are lucky in winning things. I do think that some things are just chance, there are some things that just happen, there are some things we may not understand and can't control, but what we can control is our reaction to things that happen. Our reactions can bring us fortune or curse us far more than mere happenstance.

Me, I'm lucky in friends. Having awesome friends around me makes my times of good luck so much sweeter and my times of bad luck far more bearable.

I wouldn't trade that for anything.

I never win raffles. Ever. So I'm unlucky at that. But mostly I don't really believe in luck - I do think you make your own to some extent, and it's often in how you look at things. If you get into an accident but walk away, are you lucky (for walking away) or unlucky (for getting in the accident in the first place)?

And having good friends is the best. Though often you have to be a friend to have a friend. And I suspect you are a good friend. :-)

Oh, and I mailed your shirts today!
