Luck and life and Friday the 13th
I rarely post on Friday evening, but wanted to end the work week by having a good laugh at the whole idea of Friday the 13th being a day full of bad luck. Today was a day full of activity at our place and all went well. We have rather light-colored carpet and it had been in need of a good cleaning for some time. Two nice young men came and did that today, plus we had other workers here for some repairs. I didn't get any writing done until just this moment, but I had made plans for that, knowing it would be a busy day. The house has a fresh scent and I can wiggle my toes into clean carpet.
I'm sorry if anyone reading this had what you consider to be an unlucky day. I know that some days so many things can go wrong that it seems as though the world is conspiring to wreck your life. Never give up. If you can gather enough patience, in a variety of ways, for as long as possible, something will change and you will see the good in at least one situation. Your luck, if you happen to choose to see it as luck, will change. Focus on the miracles you hear, the positive bits of energy in the universe. After awhile, it's nearly impossible to not see the good in life and what might be considered the good luck in life.
