Some people believe that keeping hold of a talisman or lucky charm really can bring good luck to the holder - if they genuinely believe it will.

Now the point is what about knowing a person who brings luck?

aah, I must explain, ok.

Simply, I am this person...huh, U all R laughing..ok

I see it, all my friends have luck after knowing me, certainly i can not increase my friends probability for winning the lottery, but my friends who reported an increase in luck recorded it in terms of personal happiness, optimism and well-being.

Sometimes it is finding a good job, a good boyfriend, or husband, or a good private business opportunity, personal or family problem sloving....

Can not believe, ok give me a try... and hopefully others will too.

Now the point is:
Do U know someone like me?
Have U experienced knowing someone who brings luck?
Do U believe on what am saying?

But I dont know if someone can really "make" you luckier. You can however feel very good or optimistic when you are in the company of a good friend. There might be a change in attitude if this person helps you out or makes you see things in a positive way. In that way yes you can feel your friend brought you luck.

For a long time people in Great Britain have been thinking that if the black cat crosses your way or enters your home it means luck.

This custom is connected with the Ancient Egypt where people thought that the cat brings happiness in the house where it lives and to people who take care about it.

Same goes with me, but the difference is for the black cat, there is so many proverbs which say it, the old English proverb says: "If there is a black cat in your house the lovers will always be there".

But for me, no proverbs, may be I will need to do some marketing...lol

U always gives me luck!" an old friend in school used to say to me. I never knew exactly what he meant. Was there something between the lines here? Was he saying, "You're lucky and I'm not"

Now, I got it.

I believe that people can bring good luck to others but unfortunately I didn't meet any of them

Maybe I must hang around with you cause I need luck so much in these days

Do you really help in finding a good boy friend or husband

fanta, same here in Egypt . in ancient Egypt black cat was sacred animal now many wouldn't feel good about seeing black cat. so it depends where you live.

why would it be not possible, that you're blessed with that special gift from God?

I do know 2 people personally

1) a young man distant family member of my husband, though not really handicapped he is not very bright, and most people try to avoid him, saying his company brings bad luck. If he is staying in our home, he drives us crazy with his though unintended actions, but his very presence is very blessing in many ways (e.g. a much better income than usual because of more work for my husband)

2) an old friend of my husband, who I do consider very close to God (mashaAllah alehi), whenever he is staying with us, I'm not worried about anything, sounds strange? Once we went on a trip to Ismailea together and got stopped by the street police, and this time we did not have our car paperwork in order and we knew this particular officer for his bad attitude, he was known for completely emptying the cars and search any possible and impossible place for anything suspicious. Us 3 grown ups with 2 small children, lots of luggage, that would have been fun.

Well he came up to us, and he asked the passenges to step out of the car. He opened the backdoor himself when his eyes fell on our friend, who was reading a religious book at that time, he was dressing a white abaya and a white clothes folded up on his head. The officer asked: what are you reading? our friend replied: a book by Sheikh X. The officer apologized for disturbing us and did not even check the carpapers.. what can I say, it was like a scene out of a film, alhamdulillah.

God blesses humans he choses with different gifts, Muslims and Non-Muslims alike, some to increase them in their faith, some to test their gratitude by it, some to increase them wander in ignorance and vanity, proud and arrogant...

Maybe in Great Britain and in Egypt but from where I come from black cats means bad luck. Whenever a black cat jumps in front of our car my mother makes the sign of the cross in the front windshield of the car.

That was in ancient Egypt it was a sacred animal but not any more in fact here it's seen by many as a bad sign and scary specially in dark with those eyes shining

well i have certanly felt very lucky to have met you and my other friends here at ES

so i think you must be a lucky person to know - bless you

But I always think one way, that am so happy for those whom I bring them luck.

Also what qualities U R looking in your future husband?

So jealous of your friends who had a chance to meet you and get luck from you.

Best wishes,

And in contrast, do you remember Sharara TV series ... starring Mohamed Awad ... I can't forget these series when I was young. He struck everybody with his lack of luck.
