Re: A brief meditation
[ QUOTE ]
Reflecting on my past and present circumstances, I have come to a general and a personally specific conclusion about life. 1) Life is mostly about the combination of luck and character. 2) Whatever I possess of the former is more than made up for by my deficits in the latter. That is all. [/ QUOTE ] I think long term, luck has very very very little to do with life. You have much more control over your path than you want to accept. You've just made choices that have removed all of that control from your hands. |

[/ QUOTE ] I think that luck has quite a bit to do with our path in so much as there is lots of stuff we have zero control over. That being said, people usually dwell too much on the stuff they can't control and not enough on the stuff they can. lol @ "victim of fate". I hope that was not a requested title. |
