Dear readers,
This is a great story that teaches us the importance of being kind-hearted and doing merits in this life, no matter how small they are.

"Bad guys, even disasters have not come yet, luck has gone away. Good guys, even luck has not come yet, all disasters have already gone away. "

The proverb suits my opinion that anyone can obtain and create luck. Luck does not just come to us,but it comes from causes that we made. No luck that comes from nothing, no causes. There is no single luck that does not come from any good causes taht we have created. Luck does not come automatically. we have made the cause whether we realize it or not.

All goodness that we made, usually or most of the time will result in a series of kindness that we get. As well as luck, one luck will bring another luck, one success will lead another success.

So, let's clean our heart, keep bad motivation and intention away from our mind, let's throw away all intention to displease, hurt, or insult others. Every time we have a bad thought, uncontrolled emotion that may drive us to do bad something, remember this; luck keeps itself from bad people, but disasters and problems love them; luck comes to good guys and disasters keep their distance away.

Let's do one good action everyday, no matter how little it is. And remember, those who can do good deeds in his life are the real luckiest people.
