lots of people
have bad experi
ences some of
the time. know
ing no differently,
perhaps they ass
ume this is just
a characteristic
of being human.
the human con
dition. or just
conditioning.
some might
think this is
just the way
it is. we gen
erally are
blessed with
a larger amount
of good luck, while
occasionally exper
iencing some un
fortunate events
or time periods.
do you know any
one at all who only
ever has good luck?
or only ever has
bad luck? i have
lived a life that
can be most
easily described
as abundant, filled
with good stuff,
inundated with
it, even. up
until i turned
around forty-
five, i’d say.
ever since
then i say
i jive with
a separate
group, which
are those for
whom bad luck
seems the over
whelming norm.
