Are you lucky?

Or do you walk round like a cartoon character with a raincloud over your head

Every person on earth today is incredibly lucky

human fertilisation is a gigantic lottery with 250 million tickets, in which – for healthy
sperm – successful fertilisation is essentially the luck of the draw.

Your are that lottery winner

Especially if you are born in a country like the UK

People should always remember how lucky they really are in that sense

I am used to it and have developed coping strategies..


I’ve been like this all my life .. one of my school reports said I was a very bright little fellow but so very anxious.. I was about 6 at the time


My default setting is ‘worse case scenario’ so that basically means I’m ready for anything bad and can cope with most things

I don’t believe in taking pills and potions plus I’m hypersensitive to so many things anyway it’s not worth the risk ( side effects)


I do overthink things ( most things ) and that in itself- is exhausting.

Very lucky.
Had a varied life, full of ups and downs.
Being very content and happy with my life means I am very lucky.

I don't believe in luck.

Though I do believe in bad luck.

In some aspects but generally not. Luck’s never really been on my side so I’ve just had to work hard.

I consider myself very lucky.
The opportunities I have and have had.
The people I have and have had who are the really close people over my life so far.

My childhood and obviously my family.
My incredible Parents and grandparents.
I've no way I could say I haven't been lucky on how my life has been and so far where it seems to be going.

I only wish millions more could have the opportunities I've had and have.
