I feel like I've lived a charmed life.
It was a service firearm in my case but I feel ya. Kinda puts everything else into context don't it?
Dunno if I'd call my life charmed, unless it was "well, coulda been worse" charmed. I've had some disastrous shit happen and done to me, but for some reason I've dodged a few literal and figurative bullets. And because I focus more on shit that went right for me I don't tend to sit around moping how awful something was or whine about how unfair life is. Nobody ever said life was any fairer than rolling dice made outta razor blades. A lucky few come up sevens, the rest get shredded hands
