Choices! What will it be? #70

Many people do confuse a person's hardwork to luck, they say "He is so lucky to have these kind of wealth at this age", they didn't put into consideration how he got about the wealth. Some people do envy others and then give off with some excuses like he is lucky and just shakes it off instead of also working hard, waiting for his own lucky day. I have encountered many lucky moments and I have also watched lucky moments in reels, they're so satisfying to watch. I will later share some lucky moments.

What is Luck

Luck is mostly intertwined with chance, we would then define luck as a good result or success caused by chance rather than human action. When talking about luck, we know that it doesn't involves the persons efforts, it just came out as a chance.

Let's take a dice as an example, a dice os a cube with 6 faces and each face is represented by dots which the number of dots represents the actual number, the most sought after number is the 6's. You possibly won't know the outcome of the dice because you're probably going to shake it in a cup then toss it on a table or floor, the number seen facing up is the number that will be counted, that's why it is called the Game of Luck.

This method is also used in the game of sports, to make a fair decision the referee brings out a coin and the player and his opponent chooses either sides of coin, the referee tosses the coin and holds, opening his hand with the coin to them and they see it fairly and the decision is taken. It is just luck you might get to see your side face up or might not, it is dictated by human.

When we say "lucky" we are talking about An act of having luck.

Lucky moments

We have had lots of lucky moments which made us look so surprised, I will be sharing my lucky moments as I hope to see yours too.

• During my secondary school days I used to wake up early, get prepared and find my way to school. From where we are staying to where my school is should be about 7km, which is not trek able for a normal school student during school period, I do pay vehicles to school, the first road is about 3.2km as it reaches a junction which splits to other major roads and then the other which leads to my school should be about 3.8 - 4km.
  
  I prepared as usual and left to where I do take vehicles, it was filled and waiting for just one person, I think I was the lucky person, as a person filled with good manners I greeted everyone in there as they all responded and we moved, as we reached the junction I was trying to bring out my transport fare, a lady offered to pay i was shocked an happy as i left to the other side, took a tricycle, upon reaching a man also paid, like it was my lucky day already. I told my friends about it, little did I know that It wasn't done, I paid to the junction and I met a family friend who took me home for free, I just had to pay ok nice throughout the day, such a lucky day it was for me and it is a very memorable one.

• This is another lucky moment of a family friend who is a carpenter, while working he wanted to get to the roof of the building to check for faults on the roof, while trying to keep the ladder which was an heavy metal/aluminum ladder, it was heavy so it moved on an high tension line above, it shocked him till his skin peeled off, but luckily he felt a push and he fell off. He said he just felt someone push him, but people staying there physically were not able to offer help at the moment due to how risky it is. And you should know the electrocuting takes seconds and minutes before it damages a person, he was so lucky to be alive again, we all said it is christ that saved him, because he called on his name before he well off, Christ pushed him off.

• A Ghastly motor Accident occured in the neighborhood, a car filled with guys tumbled on an highway, but luckily none of them died and they came out with no single injury.

• My brother once told us after school how the whole students and pupils in the school were thanking God that day. The school bus went on the usual 'picking students' routine, the driver picked up all the students and he was to return back, while trying to make a turn the bus tumbled thrice, a bus filled with students and pupils. One of the most interesting thing is that in the last tumble it landed normal, the students were taken to school with the second bus and the took the first bus for checking in case it has any fault. They were very lucky because no single student had a scratch and you would ask, what would have been their report to the respective parents
