Sadly, a lot of it is also luck or lack thereof.
exactly! But it is common for people to think they were spared by a Divine Being. I know that I'm guilty of it. If I am narrowly missed by a speeding car I feel as though someone higher up or a Guardian Angel is looking out for me, or if I g to a bar a guy offers me a drink my intuition says NO, and I listen to it then I find out the guy dosed someone else that night I will chalk it up to following my gut instincts and intuition.
