Same old grandma's story. I have no luck. I was in that mood today morning. Then remembered the same story..
When I was a kid - somewhere around 10 - I got selected for one of the prestigious science competition in my town. Getting selected itself is a big achievement. I was so happy. I told everyone that I am so Lucky. My school needs to prepare my formal nomination (administrative task) and fill it for competition. But having a process oriented school, somehow it got delayed and I could not participate.
I was so depressed, blaming my luck and school. Then I met my classmate. He came and congratulated me !!!!! I was surprised. He told "you got selected !! what an achievement. There are number of students from our school who are working so hard to get selected but not getting any luck".
I was lucky !! yes. Apparently I was. I had achieved something which most of my schoolmates could not. Although I could not make it for final round, that does not mean my luck of getting selected is gone. It was an eye opener for me.
When it comes to a bad luck, look at those who are having worst luck. You are still lucky.
