What Is Luck?
Ilustration: Dalmiro Zantleifer
The truth is that the world today features several factors beyond individuals such as chance, luck and probability, which generally meddle in the life of men.
Gambling is a clear material example in which these factors manifest as such and, as there they are ruled by no logic at all, it is possible to expect any result.
There is no doubt that this is what attracts gamblers: any number may come out, any card may be hidden in the layout, the croupier may be holding a card whose value is less than ours, luck may cause all the dice to show the same face. Luck may be on our side at any moment and, in fact, the point is that facts may happen which we might consider to be good or bad. When we gamble, choosing and not choosing at the same time gives us the probability to make fortune or lose everything.
Nothing is written because anything can happen. That is what chance is all about.
Rafting
Rafting is a team sport, in which all the crew members in the boat row and position themselves in a coordinated manner in order to balance their weight when going through the river rapids and keep themselves afloat.
The standard number of people allowed on the boat is from six to eight crew members, depending on the boat size.
Rafting beginners are recommended to remain in the center of the boat. Those who are somehow experienced and prefer to row may stay in front, whereas the most experienced generally stay at the back.
Patagonian estancias
The rise of the estancias has changed the empty limitless space into a rural production environment that enabled the country to be positioned among the first suppliers of raw material in the world.
Towards the south, the estancias have given the scenery a new shape. Getting through the harsh winter, the intense snowfalls and the incessant wind, they have become real settlements scattered in the vastness of the fields.
