Can someone please explain to me the reason why God works in my favor? How come everything always goes my way, and I always have good-luck? How come everything always works out for me in the end? I don't understand...it's really wierd..

I'm not really explaining, I'm just kind of wondering...perhaps I see things as working out my way or something.

Maybe I see things working in my favor so they do...who knows....

Go see your Chaplain and ask him/her those questions, you'll likely get a better answer than the ones we can provide!

It probably comes from a laid back attitude and being able to accept things the way they are. Not trying to control you life, but taking advantage of the opportunities when they present themselves.

It is a weird thing. It is a good thing.

Live you life right and it seems things go your way. Live it wrong and it is 24/7 drama... At least that is how it has been in my past. And it also seems the case for a few guys whom I am close enough to have known them in both their best and worst of times.

Not to be a downer, but be very extra careful when you think "everything" is going your way. All things seek balance and sometimes they balance out hard.

Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen anything to make me believe there's one all powerful force that controls everything. There's no mystical energy field that controls my destiny. It's all just a bunch of simple tricks and nonsense.

I'll stay away from the God part as that is a discussion I decided long ago to stay away from, but I think the reason you feel things are going your way is that you're trying to make them do just that. Arindel hit the nail on the head with accepting what comes your way and taking the opportunities you can. If you accept the bad stuff and try to make the best of it anyway instead of complaining and also grab the good stuff when you can, you'll end up with a positive net total.

Yep. It sounds corny, but I've learned 3 things so far in life:

- 1. If you smile, the world smiles with you
- 2. keep yourself hydrated - drink lots of water
- 3. Things always work out

Everything else is still a bit up in the air.

Be an optimist, makes your life more happy. :)
