Life Is A Lottery

The aim of this post is to analyse that statement, and say my opinion on it.

Life isn't really like a lottery. I mean, when you chose your numbers for the Double Rollover last week, did you expect to win? It's really a gamble, maybe you think 'Will I win a few pounds?' Nobody really takes care with their numbers, maybe they put their lucky number and their house number and a few digits of thier phone number but there is no strategy, no core thought behind it.

Imagine if people treated life like a lottery. Nobody would care about what they did. Imagine what that would do to Society, politicians saying "Lets put up taxes 30%, see how it turns out" or parents saying "Let's just send our kid to drama school and see how they like it" with no real reason for their choice. It would ruin lives, not just emotionally but mentally and physically.

People would do whatever they felt like. They would put no thought into life-changing decisions, do completely unreasonable things and would gamble on every choice.

If you disagree comment and tell me how life is like a lottery. Thank you for reading.

I understand this theory completely and i think life is more a roller coaster, it is chosen for us. we don't choose the numbers, life controls it. Sometimes we lose sometimes we win.

Yes, it is more a rollercoaster, I agree.
