Those who know me, know I have a hard time believing in anything. I have issue with the concept of god and religion baffles me. Politics is fraught with pointless exercises in stupidity. Justice is, to be frank, interpreted in so many different ways that its universality doesn't come close to existing. Science is too dispassionate and narrow minded to ever really be an answer. So what's left? Well call it superstition, call it plain stupidity, but all that we are left with is Luck.
Good old Lady Luck. That beautiful goddess that pops up in the most ridiculous of places and does things we never imagined could happen. To the naysayers: think about it. The people you are closest to in life, your dearest friends, how did you meet? I know for a fact that had we both not, quite randomly, decided to pluck up the courage to ask the random person walking towards the same building one cold september day 2 years ago, i would not have the amazing friends i do. (and who i have neglected over the past few months and promise to make it up to them). Heck, the great loves of our lives come about in acts of complete random chance! What if i hadn't found the surname Hohenstein intriguing, and she hadn't thought that reading 10 books over the holidays was an attractive quality.... I wouldn't be teaching dance, my blood and soul, if it wasn't for a lazy saturday night working behind a bar watching strictly and some bored punters being interested in why i was berating the tv. Don't get me wrong, im not saying everything will just fall into your lap if you wait around for your lucky day. Its always up to you to take a lucky break and make it into something incredible....
In the end you can put it down to coincidence, just a question of being in the right place at the right time. I say i was lucky to be there, because without it, i wouldn't have half of the joy i do today!
