I agree. Call it luck or fate or an angel looking out for you. Somethings just happen for no reason or with no effort on your part. Thank goodness you saw that stop sign. That’s a scary close call.

Learning a skill, applying that skill to a career, dating until I found the right guy for me, spending money wisely, saving for the future, having a good relationship with my parents … These are all choices that I made, not luck.

I do really, really wish I could win the lottery. That would be some awesome luck! :-)

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful response!
