Luck
Luck = opportunity + preparation.
What luck is not
Is getting what you want.
What luck is
Is surviving what you don't want.
To wish someone luck
Is merely to apply
The odds of probability
And leaving the outcome to…
Well…
Luck.
Author's note: It always amazes me how human beings can take the most benignly beautiful things and make them ugly. The Nazi swastika, arguably one of the most hated, reviled, and yet still revered by some, symbols the civilized world has ever known, is the traditional "gammadion", a symbol of good luck in the Orient and among some native American Indians.
