lucky
Favored by fate
Lucky characterizes good fortune (lucky winner) and things associated, sometimes superstitiously, with good fortune (lucky charm).
A lucky break is an unexpected bit of good luck.
If you are lucky enough to do something or for something to happen, the suggestion is that good luck played a part in it.
This makes you a lucky one.
Someone who is happy-go-lucky seems to experience good fortune most of the time and is not easily discouraged.
