Running Out of Luck

Salam.

Up until now, everything went smoothly, I am healthy, I have food to eat, shelter to live in, clean water supply, family and friends to look me out and job to keep me sane. I think I can consider myself lucky. One fine day (yesterday), I had a conversation with my dear friend discussing about life and I told her that I am lucky for everything I have now. Just like me, my friend considered herself lucky too. The threshold on lucky grouping for us is basically healthy, physically and mentally.

Suddenly she said, 'What if one day we running out of luck?'

That hit me hard. First, because I am not prepared to live my life any other way. Second, that might be true because the only constant is change.

I have no answer to that question, but I have solution to ease my mind. First, be grateful - I don't know about others but there is some magic involved that able to distract me from overthinking which lead to unnecessary stress when I am feeling grateful (attempt in being grateful: because I think I am being grateful but I don't know whether I really was at that moment), and secondly,  do the best in everything because we will never know what will happen next. Life is mystery like that.
