Will I ever get lucky...?

Life has taken that last pound of flesh for every windfall. In one way or the other I end up paying through my nose. On the face it seems like a fortune sine die, but I know I have never had something in life without losing another... let me not delve into this philosophy too much.. Just this silly incident today at the dinner party in Mohali Club. It had been more than a year since I played Tambola. Tried playing today again thinking my luck might have changed and I ll win atleast a ''line'' if not full house. I mean kabhi to kuch different karo. Tried with three different tickets and even once I did not get anything. Ha ha... but looking at the funnier side... not ALL but me were winners anyways!.. :D...so hope floats.
