The notion of “luck” means different things to different people. To a regular working joe, it might mean winning the lottery, to a gambler, it might mean going on a hot streak at Las Vegas. To any guy like me, “getting lucky”, has a whole different connotation.
Whatever luck is, everybody wants some; and they want it to be good luck. Whether it’s a lucky break, a lucky throw of the dice, or a lucky encounter, luck is something everyone hopes for when they are down on their luck.
Luck is the answer to despair. Every cloud has a silver lining so to speak. No matter how bad things may get, we know that with just a stroke of luck, everything can change and we can be riding high on the hog instead of wallowing in the slop.
In these tough times it is good to have something to be optimistic about, because you never know when lady luck will smile on you. Some people make their own luck, and some just fall into it. The important thing, is that people keep on thinking that today may just be their lucky day…because it could be.

I love this post Mike!
Well, a little luck would be quite fabulous right now, I'm thinking.
Hi Dutch! I am glad you enjoyed this short little gem.
Hi Gucci! I think we all could use some good luck, I know I could.
Weird coincidence. I just wrote an article last week about karma - which I think is responsible for all the good and bad luck that we experience. In my case, I guess I'm running out of luck. Maybe I should rub my rubber ducky more often. =)
I'm praying for some luck myself these days...I've had a bit of a streak and only hope it continues.
Hi Ryhen! You are right karma has much to do with it, but so does a positive attitude.
Hi GEB. I hope your run of luck continues.
I'm a big believer in luck, and making the best of it. I feel I've been lucky all my life, partly due to temperament, mostly to chance.
