Yeah, I do, and if you've got any extra, send it my way. I could definitely use some.
Luck, I believe is akin to synchronicity and equally hard to control, though some people seem to have all the luck to the extent that they are seemingly born lucky. Luck, like synchronicity, is something you seldom see coming.
But really, it's all in perception. Even people who have "no luck at all" are not completely luckless. After all, they're still alive and kicking, even if they might be gruesomely and grotesquely disfigured and skulking about in the shadows to hide the deformities of their miraculous survival. Oh, wait, miraculous survival... so they were lucky after all. Just, you know, not quite lucky enough.
The thing is, everyone is lucky in their own way in their own time. Ever almost fall down a flight of stairs? or almost hit an animal in the road? or almost say the wrong thing to someone with a lot of muscle and little inclination to control their baser instincts? That, my friends, was luck. (Yes, common sense is a form of luck, just the rarest of the rare forms.)
Now if we could only harvest luck. Imagine the resale value. Yes, my friends, luck... in aerosol form.. Hmmm, I believe Axe bodyspray would have us believe they've acquired a very specific form of luck. I wonder if it works in casinos...
Everyone is lucky, except when they're not. You really can't pick and choose when you'll be lucky; you just have to hope that you will have it when the time is right. If it came down to it, I'd be happier if I was luckier in the face of my immanent destruction over winning the lottery. On the other hand, who's to say that good luck is always good. Sometimes the worst luck comes from having been "lucky." Many people who win the lottery end up colossal jerks in the end and no one loves them, except if there's money in it for them. Some people who seemingly defied the odds and survived a horrific and tragic accident might feel as if they'd been better off dead.
One man's luck is another man's accident waiting to happen.
Aha, I just got an idea of how to respond to this question. But you'll have to wait to see what it is.... (Don't hold your breath or anything; it's not that brilliant.)
Come on... how much more luck energy do you need me to send? I also believe that luck can be cyclical. Like when I hit 6 royal flushes in 6 weeks. That cycle needs to come back. I miss it.
