Karma and Luck

THIS WAS A DRAFT THAT I THOUGHT I MAY AS WELL POST

So I've been having a muse about Luck recently, good and bad, but mostly good. I am not sure if you call it luck, or karma, or whatever but try to follow me here.

I am a good person, well, I like to think I am a good person and I would tell you, if you asked, that I am a good person. Ofcourse I could be lieing so who really knows? But just imagine for a second that I am telling the truth, I am a relatively good person.

As a good person I would expect Karma or Luck to reflect this, if they exist. Lets see.

I crash my Car - Bad Luck. However 2 scrapyards near my house each have 2 cars of the same make and we are able to fix my car back to working order for £20 - Good Luck.

I barely tried in my exams, I pass and go to College then to University - Good Luck.

This brings me to a more serious one. My grandad, fit as a fiddle, a kind considerate man with no hate in his heart, has a stroke, something that could only really be caught if a Doctor was looking for it. He is now paralysed and can't really do a lot. Obviously this is very bad and heart breaking in some respects. Bad Luck? Not necessarily. He didn't DIE. If you take the stroke out of the equation of Luck and say it was predestined to happen, then your left with the dichotomy in which the result he recieved was the best, that of life.

This brings me to the fact that I am 18 almost 19 and I am yet to experiance a close family death. My cousin died, in her sleep, when she was 16. Very sad, very unexpected, but she went peacefully and didn't suffer. For my other family I still have both parents, four grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. I would say I am very lucky.

I figure this is how faith is started.
