What is luck? Does it really exist?

June 30, 06 by Diego

Some people say that luck doesn’t exist, some other say that it does and you need it.

But I ask myself, does it exist or not?

    hey Grace
    I do not believe in luck. I believe in grace, and God is full of it. Maybe you’ve been hurt by the church, I am sorry, but ask yourself; who is God, and what kind of God is he? Many churches and religions claim to preach and teach about God, but the only God I’ve read about in the Bible and that I know, is one full of love and compassion. Blessings are from God, I don’t know all the answers, I don’t know why my Mom died and that I never got to really meet her, I don’t know. I refuse to let that sperate God and I, I know that God can work all things for good. God is not partial, if he was, Jesus wouldn’t have died on the cross for us all-no matter what we have done. What God has done in my life has changed it, and life is not the same. I don’t know what I would do without Him.

    People refer to luck as: a chance or that “Which happens beond (probally didn’t spell that right.) a person’s control. I don’t think God is partial with anyone and it is pretty much probability.

    The Dictionary defines luck as: Success or failure apparently brought by chance rather than through one’s own actions.

    I ve come to my own personal definition after studying some statistics and I would define luck as: “A very rare event (meaning that the probability of that event happening is very small) that might affect somebody either negatively or posivetely.” For example When you get lucky you are just witnessing and being part of a rare event that affected you positevely. And the same for when you get bad luck, you are not hoping to be affected by that small probability of that rare event happening but sometimes we are.
    Another example: Let’s say you are going to play the lottery and lets assume that the probabilities or chances of you wining with only one entry are 1 in a million, the probability of you wining are so very, very, very small that if you happen to win you would say that you got very, very, very lucky. Now lets say that you really want to win the lottery and decide to spend all of your savings which are $900,000 in order to cover all the possible combinations in a lottery game that would give you a prize of 200 million dollars, but lets say that the $900,000 amount is good to cover only 999,999 of the 1,000,000 combinations that you need but you still decide to play because you are only missing 1 combination. You can be 99.9% sure that you’ll win but there is still that very, very, very small probability that you won’t win even spending all that money, and that would be an example of extremely bad luck if you don’t win. Do you get the point?
