Some things in life were meant to be. That doesn't mean that everything will drop out of the sky though. Sometimes you have to go after things and really claw your way to the top to get them and other things literally fall into your lap. What is the determining factor? The answer is plain and simple. Good old fashioned luck!

I always do! You can't believe how many people drop quarters around here and leave them in a parking lot. Sometimes you can find a couple of bucks worth. Now that is luck!

my thought exactly ^^ along with this,

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Probably true, but can they make things happen that they want to happen?

Less than 20% of men have this "ability".
