Lucky people!!!


SO you move right? In this sea of mammals. Somehow still locked to mommy and daddy and what they did and what they didn’t do and yet being forced by those very same people to go out and conquare the world with your entire being. So what do you do? Well if you are lucky...you will cut the ambilical cords. If you are unlucky, you will never truly understand what they want and will waste away doing goodness knows what to yourself. And if you are half clued in, you will get a Masters, heck a PhD and marry at a good age and stay there.

I like to think that the best ones are the lucky ones but alas not everyone is lucky. Lucky goes to ten per cent of human beings that were born to just seem like they don’t care, don’t belong and wont make it. The ten percent that everyone ends up wanting to be like. Steven Jobs, Richard Branson, Michelle Obama, Albert Einstein..you name it.

It doesn’t mean if you are reckless and lost someone will envy you. But it means that if you have pulled away from the norm, fallen, made some mistakes and never ever let too many people see you cry about it. You might just make it. Because you are the lucky one that doesn’t have to please everyone including yourself but are still able to be true. Strangely meeting the needs of millions because you just could not be contained.

I hope to heaven that those who know they are lucky, will all get to the region of luckiness. It seems to me that not many agree that lucky people make it. And that many think a true sign of luckiness is for even a snail in a remote village to be able to be trumpled by a pair of Nike or a dropped ipad. But that’s not true. The truth I know is that the lucky people are simply the ones that are not hating others for their success because they know they have their own share somewhere. The lucky people are those who have dropped bellow sea level and still managed to float. The lucky people live life as it is without blaming where they come from, what they’ve done and without really giving a damn what others are doing.

People the world over find this kind of behaviour strange. And in fact life itself fights it pretty damn hard. And I guess that is why lucky people are also highly aware of a higher power. Someone out there that knew that that bunji jump should have killed you but didn’t let it happen. Someone out there that knows you are way out of line but turns it to your advantage by squeezing the wisdom out of it into your heart.

Either way the lucky people, mavericks and such…I like to think I am one of them. I like to think I know a few of them and I just pray to God that if at least we don’t all get to board some rocket ship we still get to make a mark unlike any other. Because that’s what lucky people do you see. They do induplicable things. That anyone following can only simply ruin it. I guess that is why lucky people have absolutely no regrets. Happy November Otuli!!!
