    Always look at life with new eyes. Look at people with new eyes. Look at things with new eyes. Never bring in the old. Never look through the memory, never look through experience. They are all clouds which surround you, and through which you lose the freshness of life. Always make way and look direct, immediate, and you will see that everything is so new.  Osho

    Two friends were walking through the desert.  During some point of the journey they had an argument and one friend slapped the other one in the face.

    The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand:  "Today my best friend slapped me in the face."

    They kept on walking, until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath.  The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him.

    After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone:  "Today my best friend saved my life."

    The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you write on a stone.  Why?"

    The other friend replied, "When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away.  But when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."

    There is one 'Luck Factor' that most of us completely miss – Luck increases with the amount of chances that you take. Lucky people are not born with a silver spoon in their mouth. They are simply those who have taken more chances than average.

    The essence of luck is opportunity. Which means that the more opportunities you will create for yourself, the more luck and abundance you will attract into your life.

    You become luckier when you actively search for the new opportunities. When you accept that you are the one responsible for your life,that it is up to you to make things happen. When you are willing to stick with whatever you do long enough to turn bad luck into good.

    Keep your mind open to the new opportunities you will soon hear people say in admiration “Wow! Lucky you!”
