How do you define lucky?

[Capt Jack]

I think theres a difference between 'being lucky' and 'a stroke of luck'.

'being lucky'
appreciation for ones own 'wealth of life'
finding what you yourself consider 'true love'
finding, getting and keeping a job you really enjoy doing


'stroke of luck'
lottery winner
missing a plane that crashes on take off
pulling down an inside straight on the last card


the latter would be a fleeting flash of luck that pays off big...and undoubtedly couldnt be repeated with any amount of regularity. the payoff can often be huge but incredibly short lived.

the former more like 'hearing opportunity knocking and answering the door'. also a big payoff, but spread over alot more time


my take
