Anybody, help me, please. 
Thank you! |
Luck is a random change of fortunes. There is good luck and bad luck.
Some people believe that doing certain things brings either good or bad luck to them. One could say these people "believe in luck."
People who are always struggling in life are said to be "unlucky" while people who have good things happening all the time are said to be "lucky."
Some people who believe in luck have "lucky charms", objects which they believe convey good fortunes to them.
They may also have objects to ward off bad luck.
Other people believe ones luck is a result of personal actions.
Oh well!
