Now, nobody would mind having all the luck in the world. It can even make it easier through stuff you're not even capable of or you do not "deserve" (yes deserve between quote since we all even ourselves have had or have things we absolutely do not deserve, at least in comparison with others).

But, one angle that it seems to get ignored when it comes to luck. It's about being lucky and going in paths that do not speak to you, do not resonate with the life you see yourself living or simply being successful in things or with people whom you do not want (albeit being told how lucky you are which makes you at least feel better about yourself).

Having luck, as some say at least, is necessary to succeed at many endeavors at life. Even in some case we can take 2 similar people but one of them would fail ultimately at something because the person didn't had the luck of having an uncle who knew how to do something specific and taught him and then that thing was the hit or miss in order to impress someone important in their life (employer, client, romantic interest) or even save himself from a dangerous situation.

I'm not saying here that we shouldn't be grateful for the cards we were dealt in life, that's actually the big good side of luck. But here, I'm directing the lights on the bad side of luck, it's the side where some lucky people end up in careers, with partners, with skills and with even lives just because they got lucky once when they were trying something, and now it seems like they cannot escape it. It just worked soooo well for them that they are now stuck in it without enough courage to admit it wasn't for them nor for the existence they so much see for themselves having and so to leave it behind moving on onto something that speaks to their purpose and to their own wants.

Now your turn, tell me if you have noticed this too. And tell me if this just has to do with our need to feel validated by others for having "a success" that seems to carry itself, or because the lucky person is just too weak or egoistical to admit that it was just luck and even that they were lucky yet it's not something they see themselves in. (And yes, life sometimes deals us with some cards we do not like, but alas if we could use them to acquire the cards to use to win both at life and at an inner spiritual level just so we do not feel like we're at a fight raging from ourselves against us, fighting battles against the only thing that's supposed to be on our side and within our control but only for it to resist and insist that we are on the wrong path).

And ps: I'm not here complaining about being lucky, I've had so far my own share of luck and of being unlucky.
