Re: Truthfully...Do you believe in luck?

Actually, I don't believe in "luck" so to speak. I believe that God has our lives under control... I never say I am lucky... I say "I am blessed". I do know that some people are accident prone and some just make many bad decisions and have a hard time learning from mistakes... it just happens!

Lady Cocoa,

You have to look at the percentages. Some people do make poor decisons, and some just are a recipient of time and chance. As for the accident prone and the hypochondriac...they need therapy LOL

Blessings, Rhoni

I do think "chance" is part of life....but not luck... Luck, to me, is superstition.... Not for Christians.... Now chance, that just happens.... If for some reason my taco sauce drips on my shirt everytime I eat my taco, are tacos bad luck? Of course not...I am sloppy and I need to change the way I eat....or quit going thru the drive thru! lol... If I don't send the chain email letters back will I have a week of bad luck? No! If I break a mirror, will I have bad luck? No...just a mess to clean up.... To me, that is what I consider "luck". Now, do the hypochondriac and accident prone need therapy? maybe so... but I think the hypochondriac needs to get over it's need of attention and the accident prone needs to stay from behind the wheel! just teasing about the last 2~!

You answered Rhoni's post better than I could have.

My personal opinion is there is no such thing as good or bad luck...

The accident prone don't need therapy...they need to slow down and pay attention to what they are doing...JMHO

Well maybe so, but the hypochondriac needs to get over the issue that causes them to self-medicate or need all the attention
