Luck

Luck is the belief in an organisation of fortunate and unfortunate events. Luck is a form of Superstition which is interpreted differently by different individuals.
A happens (I wear my lucky shirt) and then B happens (something good)Therefore, A caused B
An alternative rationalist approach to luck is to contrast it with control. Luck is that which happens beyond a persons control.
Everything that seems on the surface to be an evil may be a good in disguise. And everything that seems good on the surface may really be an evil. So we are wise when we leave it to God to decide what is good fortune and what misfortune, and thank him that all things turn out for good with those who love him.
