How good is your luck? Let's try phrasing that a little differently. Are you alive? Are there things that you enjoy, people who make you feel happy and experiences for which you really have reasons to be grateful? If you can answer 'yes' to at least some of the above, then your luck isn't just good; it is excellent. Indeed, it is hard to see how even a lottery winner could consider themselves luckier. For the simple existence of a large sum of money in a person's life, guarantees none of this. You are truly lucky, as soon you will see the brighter side of your life and forget all other irrelevant things.
Words, for all that they have great potential power, hardly do justice to many profound emotions. There are some feelings that it is simply impossible to describe. The best that even the greatest writer can hope for is to convey a slight sense of meaning through metaphor and analogy. And if even poets struggle as they pass through poetic territory, how are the rest of us supposed to articulate vital, personal, points. Someone is having difficulty saying something. Try to make an allowance for this and to empathise
None of us like to be thought of as inconsistent. Indeed, we strive so hard to avoid earning such a reputation, even inadvertently, that we find ourselves sticking to promises we have made. We stick to policies that we have adopted, even when we no longer agree with them so wholeheartedly. But to be too concerned about losing face can result in feeling obliged to put on a face that no longer reflects the real state of a situation. Better to allow for a little honest change than to maintain a deceptive status.
We are all, to some extent, self-centred. How can we not be? Even if we make a conscious effort to see things from other people's point of view, to empathise with the feelings of those around us and to care deeply about the well-being others, we still see the world, first and foremost, as it appears to us through our own eyes. But in at least striving to understand what may be happening in someone else's head and heart, we don't just improve our relationships; we improve ourselves. Great sensitivity is called for present situations.
