Ask one friend and they will say I have the best luck. I always get what I wish for and win the some great prizes. Ask another friend and they will tell you the worst things happen. That if something could go wrong it would happen to me. Ask me? Everything has to happen for a reason and will work itself out.
The question then is, is it luck, karma, or just the way one views the world? Is the person that thinks I am the luckiest person just a "Glass Always Full Person" and the other friend the opposite? I am not sure that is the case. I do believe however it is a blind faith that there is good in anything that happens. The one thing they all agree on is that my life could easily be a comedy because it just is not believable thing situations I find myself in. I can honestly say even on the worst days I have to laugh at the predicament.
Let's just go through a brief list: How many people can say that the are betting pools about when in a summer you will get stung by a Bee? Most people would never expect to get stung in particular when you have an allergy. Yet, it is far higher probability that I will be stung than I will not. How many people can get a staph infection on the leg one summer and the next summer break an ankle? How many people can have a window broken and mirror stolen at a job interview in a wealthy neighborhood? How many people can win tickets to a private concert or a nook at a book reading you never intended to attend? Or in strange predicaments in relationships that can not be explained? Have no prospects of a job and all the sudden have 3 jobs? This is just somethings more recent but it is something that has perpetually occurred throughout my life. One minute I could win a coloring contest, 2 cakes at cake walk, a raffle, and a fish and then the next there could be illness and death in the family. It is like a bipolar life without the bipolar mental state. The easy response to this is my life is never dull.
It just can often be puzzling. How does this happen? How does one person have crazy extremes and others nothing? Never winning or losing? Never experiencing extreme happiness or sadness? What leads us to the life we live? It cannot just be the choices we make because I often can barely make a decision; unless it is an emergency. Is it just life picking someone to have a good laugh at? It is not bothersome, just slightly confusing. I would not have my life any other way than it is; however, it is far from explainable.
