Coincidence & Luck

The term ‘coincidence’ is unacceptable when it comes to a certain point in life for most events which have taken place are predetermined as some define. On the other hand, luck is more generally used in our daily communication and interaction, though some may not believe in such. We might call it the coincidence when we bump into the same person several times a day and we’d probably known it as our luck if we happen to obtain a better outcome compared to what we’ve expected. All and all, it shows our insecurity towards the happenings around and the decisions made, not to mention we have less faith in our own capabilities and the paths taken. A person who is confident enough to finish off his tasks is not equivalent to a person who completes all tasks without the sufficient confidence. The difference is the former does not use the word coincidence or luck whereas the latter believes in lucky charms and any others which are related to coincident in life. Anyhow, both coincidence and luck are one form of belief which many have faith in, where the debate regarding those two goes on.
