Lucky Strike...

Just like all things bad can happen at one go, Lady Luck may sometimes pay us a visit many nights (or days) in a row. Maybe she feels bad. Maybe she wants to make up for those lousy days you've endured. These days, she seemed to have taken a liking to me. She must have heard my whinges and pleas in the middle of the night.

There are no complaints; only a body of contentment. Though not all she could grant, I am still thankful.

Mails and calls trickled in over the last couple of weeks with news of prizes won or freebies earned. The smile on my face was evident - for they were the exact things I wished for.

The wonderful things in life - some you may not have asked for. But somehow, they happened or somehow, you have them. And somehow, you do not always appreciate them till the day you have lost them.
