Good breaks, Bad Breaks, reality or perception?

Post by kajmk »

On the surface and at a glance, things occur that appear to be good or bad luck in the sport of bowling.
Please weigh in on this.
They are not always what they appear.

A baseball pitcher throws a pitch that is out of the strike zone, the batter swings and misses.
Good luck or bad?
Line drives that find a glove, fungos that fall for base hits.

Weather, wind, precipitation, nuances of artificial turf, sun in the eyes, etc.
May all beings everywhere be happy and free,
and may the thoughts, words, and actions of my own life
contribute in some way to that happiness
and to that freedom for all.

Bad luck? Good shots that don't get rewarded via pins getting knocked over then standing up or sliding across and not falling.

Good luck? Throwing a terrible shot and still getting a strike.

Both happen.
