LUCK is What You Do With Your Life !
This is one story, my dadaji used to narrate, which
stays fresh in memory more than 40 years later

A poor farmer blamed the dead tree in the middle
of his small field for all his poverty & misfortune.
After years of grumbling, he sold his land & went
to the city - to become a rickshaw puller.


MISFORTUNE , he called it !!

Years later, a rich looking man put a wad of notes
in his hands; surprised, he asked why it was done.
"Don't you remember, the field with the dead tree
that you sold to me ?" the rich looking man asked.
"Well, I dug up the field to uproot the cussed tree
and guess what, there was a pot full of ornaments
buried right under the tree.
"

Are You Lucky ? Or, dogged by Misfortune ?
