Luck. Lucky. Luckless.

I love alliterations. In case you don't know.

This morning, I went to my meeting and then took a nice walk over to the GIVE center to get a scholarship filled out. The people I needed weren't there so I have to go back in about an hour. I then went to the financial aid office to see my favorite person, Kay Biddick. I worked with financial aid my freshman and sophomore year of college. All the women who work there mean so much to me. Kay is basically my other grandmother :). After that, I went to the business office to do some business, haha.

I then went to BBT to deposit some monies and as I was about to get my receipt and leave when the guy behind the counter says, "have a lucky weekend!" I stared at him for a second and said, "thanks?" That was an odd phrase to say. Who says that?

It got me thinking because at some point during my college career, I decided I no longer believed in luck and was always peeved when someone said, "Good luck on your test." Although, I've come to the conclusion that luck is just a label for things that are awesome and happen unexpectedly. Call it fate, call it luck, call it whatever you want but basically it is real. We all just call it what we want to. Fate is sort of different though.

If you've read about God then you may know that He gives people the freedom to choose what they do and want. So fate is partly our choice and partly the world mixing together. Things are only labeled as fate after they happen. Maybe it was just coincidence. Fate, coincidence, call it whatever you want, it's still the same thing. I guess it's all about how you want to label it. Guess I need to stop getting annoyed with the... "good luck on your test"... phrase.

But, I am now really happy that he said to have a lucky weekend. Now I'm going to see if I can't find me some "luck/fate/coincidence/amazing, unexpected occurrences" this weekend.
