Don't know about luck mate but you've definitely been blessed with great friends.
But, with every one of these "good luck" occasions it's been when I've been practicing religion. When I've felt a connection to God, and I've felt like I'm on the right track spiritually.
I don't do religion. Too complicated. Too open to negative interpretation and abusive gits. I respect people's faith though. I do consider a higher power - call it God or whatever you like - and I always feel on the right track when I do stuff for others, and also when I take better care of myself. Even stepping aside to let somebody go before me at Tescos makes me feel all fuzzy inside (and that aint when I've taken me meds)
I have read prayer can change energy levels, and in turn influence good things to happen to you. There has been studies on this.
Indeed. Give it all over to a higher power, I say.
Or do the manifestation thingy?
I didn't ask for it, or expect it. It was a random act of kindness.
When this happens, it certainly helps to put back some faith in humanity because it can get very dark out there..
Meditation is also said to do the same thing and boost positive energy.
There are certain things which affect us as a whole (on a physical, mental, and spiritual level) and I think we know when this happens. It's like we're connecting into something much bigger than what we can see or hear. Mediation is a way of connecting to the universe as is prayer. There are many ways to connect. I like it when I feel plugged into the bigger picture.
P.S if you're a loon, then so am I.
