Luck is one of our belief systems, In this ever-changing world of random chaos, there is always that need for some type of luck. some people believe that they are magnets of Luck, while others do not.

Luck is a very fortunate word everyone wishes for, Although to my understanding, I believe luck is one of the results of cognitive dissonance we naturally have. sometimes in life, there arises some inner dilemma that can be rationalized to being lucky or unlucky.

It's pretty normal for Individuals to see themselves in a positive light as a good person, so when bad things happen. It's easy to resolve such dilemma with "bad luck" or some magic wand waving somewhere.

Even when good things happen unexpectedly we also relate it to Good Luck. but even luck has its own grey areas, because there is another type of luck I know too well "The unlucky luck."

Unlucky luck indeed sounds like a paradox. Imagine for a second that someone finds himself in some unfortunate situation but narrowly escapes, sure, we could consider such person lucky, but that was an unlucky situation is the first place.

I've also experienced Unlucky luck on several occasions. I could remember just some months back, I lost all my data and graphic works in a failed hard drive, then I decided to quit selling graphics for a while and focus more on the buzzing crypto world. I discovered steemit afterwards. An unlucky situation led to a lucky discovery.

Or when I was on my bike going down a slope and my break fails, speeding towards oncoming traffic at the junction, I finally Crashed with my legs inches from a car tire.

It might be kind of confusing to define Unlucky luck, is it truly luck, bad luck or do they cancel out each other?

Maybe Unlucky luck is just a buffer the universe randomly spawned out to protect us from misfortune.

There have been cases of people repeated caught in the web of unlucky luck. They always find themselves in Unfortunate situations only to narrowly escape.

Are those people attracted to Luck or Bad luck?

Are normal people going through life with no mishaps more lucky than they are?

Is Unlucky luck more common than usual? maybe you can share with me what encounters you have had with unlucky luck.

Thanks for reading, Peace and love.

I don't think we are in complete control of everything happening in our lives but often, the unlucky luck is the product of something we did or didn't do. Let's say your bike. It could be that something happened to the brakes while you were riding - like going through some oil which made the tires so slippery that the brakes couldn't grip. But more likely, the brakes weren't checked for a long time. the pads got brittle, the cable got weak, something like that. they could have been replaced....
I think you get where I am going. Lots of "luck" and "bad luck" is a result of prior actions.

visiting you from thealliance :)

Thanks for your input. our actions do dictate most of our life. although I do believe not everything can be explained by actions or inaction, that is where the term luck or bad luck comes in.

It does feel surreal right. its like you are daring fate. thanks for reading

This is a good philosophical question, and I like the way you explored it! Sometimes, though, what we perceive as "good" luck or "bad" luck is subjective, as illustrated by this parable:

Thank's for reading fam, you totally got the reasoning behind my writing.

Thanks for reading. peace and love :-)

You are so right about defining being unlucky or even how that works. Often for me something unlucky leads to something great like what happened with you. Analyzing my life for the past few months and understanding how thoughts work has made me conclude that luck has a small role to play in our lives if we think positively, we do draw good luck towards us. Love this article and will be featuring it in my curation post this coming week.

Thank you @sharoonyasir. I appreciate your input. I'm glad to be selected :-)
