Paragraph?

Hi.
Could you please check this paragraph for me?
In pagan temples of ancient Rome, people used to donate for the sake of their gods and goddesses. The ones who were generous in giving much donations were called luck. Through time, this notion of luck became linked to the things that happen to a person because of chance. In much of the contemporary debates about the nature of success, luck is one of its major participants while the other player is hard work. On the basis of some arguments, the title of success should be given to luck.
Thank you in advance.
