- cheesecakegood 22d agoIf luck = something you didn’t choose or had no control over, sure. If luck = it could have gone otherwise, that’s nonsensical; if you had different parents you wouldn’t exist to begin with, as you are literally a specific fusion of your biological parents. Similarly, if we take luck to mean something probabilistic, or something coincidental? Also meaningless in this case. If luck = how your situation compares to others, I would argue “fortunate” is the better word here. And of course there’s a parallel spiritual debate if you believe that identity to be separate (were you “assigned” to parents, was it deliberate or random, etc)
