...well do you, Punk?
;-)
In recent weeks, I've been discussing with my social group and pondering personal emotional health as a motivating factor in fighting depression, loneliness and in dealing with random events. I've had this concept, the concept of "luck" or randomness, heard several times in conversation and somehow feel it's often understated a condition in having a healthy emotional reflection of one's own self.
Of course, whenever I hear the english term "luck", I can't help but think of the very famous Dirty Harry line, since it became so iconic, but I realize that the question we need to ask ourselves sometimes is, indeed, just that. Because if we don't "feel lucky", odds are it WILL negatively impact our emotional health or growth and, by ricochet, our views and opinions of the world around us.
I for one, do not feel lucky anymore, not a whole lot though I've had a spread of it these last couple of weeks, enough to start me thinking things might actually end up working out eventually.
So I return the question. Do you feel lucky?
Well...do you, Punk?
Also, as a secondary question; how can we influence our outlook if we indeed do not feel we're lucky, wether it be specifically towards certain things or events, or just in general?
