Good And Bad Karma

When karma pays off...

Good And Bad Karma
quoteaddicts.com

I am a firm believer in karma, good and bad. Anytime my car breaks down, they run out of lemonade at Starbucks or I hit every red light possible when I’m trying to get somewhere I blame karma. On the other side of things anytime I find a 5 dollar bill on the ground or get a second chance on an assignment I see it as a reward for my good deeds, good karma.

Holding the door for someone, donating money/time (especially around the holidays), helping a friend out etc. all of these good things deserve good karma am I right? Now don’t get me wrong everyone wants good things to happen to them but you shouldn’t do all these nice things just because you want good karma in return, wanting to help people should come natural.

On the flip side of there are a few people who I believe deserving the worst karma possible.

People who cut you off on the highway, girls who skip you in line for the bathroom at Clyde’s, or when the testing center over books seats and you have to wait 3 hours to take your test. While these things do happen and you just want to scream, you have to sit back and let karma do it’s thing.

What I hate the most about karma is waiting. It at times feels like you wait forever for bad karma, for people to finally get a taste of their own medicine, but when it finally does it’s one of the best feelings.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
