I Would think roles of luck and coincidence play in universal language is the same way as it plays in Santiago’s life. Santiago’s has begun as a shepherd, and on his way to a city he met the king, luck and coincidence. The king helped Santiago find out his personal legend, it was the thing about his dream. Then the king showed him the way to his personal legend. On the caravan to the place where his treasure was, he met an Englishman who told him about the book and the alchemist. When they arrive at the oasis he meets Fatima and falls in love, luck and coincidence. When he’s out in the desert and sees the hawks, he has a vision, luck and coincidence. Luck and coincidence play a very big role in Santiago’s life, and even, some in mine.
When I was 8, I had just moved to California. I, of course after playing soccer in Maryland, began playing soccer in Humboldt. I was on a team called the green Hornets, considering our color was green.
Now Garrett Adamo had just moved to Humboldt from Alabama and decided to play soccer, he was put on a team called the green Hornets.

1. Our team was the best team in the league, we won every game. Me and Garrett had began to talk and became good friends. I didn’t know it, but my mom had started talking to his mom, sue, and they had become friends before me and Garrett did. Now, five years later, Garrett and me are best friends, we haven’t fought once. I think him and myself are going to be friends for a long time, I would call that luck and coincidence, we both moved, went on the same team, and became best friends.
