What goes around, comes around.

Do you buy into that?

PrettyinPink55 · 07-30-2008, 07:45 PM

Absolutely.

Mr. Television · 07-30-2008, 07:47 PM

I do.

Hollow · 07-30-2008, 07:54 PM

sort of. it's just kind of biased at times.

Nighthawk76 · 07-30-2008, 08:00 PM

I believe in it.

EmoJoe · 07-30-2008, 08:53 PM

ehhh....to an extent i guess.

I used to believe in Karma, but now I'm not so sure. My entire life, I was extremely generous and thoughtful to everyone. I don't smoke, drink, do drugs, and have always eaten more healthy than not. Despite this. I was rewarding with losing just about my entire family and got health problems while only in my 40s. Why is it "coming around" to me? Kids with cancer, the Holocaust victims, etc, etc, etc. Why did it come around to them? None of it makes any sense to me.

Janice, you musn't think of the negative things. I know it is hard to do, but the things that happened in your life isn't "Karma." Have you experienced a lot of hardships in your life? Yes, but look at what you do have. A wonderful and loving husband and friends who truly care about you.

The minute you think negatively, is the minute you start feeling bad and bad things usually follow bad thoughts. God is a powerful, loving force and if you turn to him, you will see wonderful things that your life truly has.

I'm so sorry for everything you've been through Janice. I can't even imagine going through all that.

When I was in school I was picked on terribly. I was bullied and had rumors spread about me all over that place.Some of the stuff that was said I haven't repeated to anybody and I'm still not going too. But I remember being in my room many nights and crying and asking God why was this happening to me. I never did anything to anybody. I thought about suicide. I even did some things when I was alone just contemplating it. In the end I came to the conclusion that I loved my family more than I hated myself. Well I guess I eventually got through all that although I'd be lying if I said that still didn't bother me. I lost my Mom 6 years ago. She was the kindest person you would have ever wanted to meet. Well she got sick by the time she was in her early 50's and she just deteriorated over the next 10 years. By the end...she was a recluse. She couldn't leave the house. She refused to see a doctor. I was the one who found her. I'm still haunted by that. My Dad has been in and out of hospitals for the last few years because of his heart. I am scared to death of losing him. I've even had dreams where he dies. My Mom had always been very religious. She believed in God totally. I believe in him too but sometimes it is hard. Bad things happen to good people and I don't understand it either. All I can do is pray.

after my mom died, relations between my dad and his in-laws turned really volatile and my grandmother said "i hope your father gets deathly ill" well less than a month after she spoke those words she was diagnosed with lung cancer and died not long afterward. i just feel if you do bad or even wish bad on another person it will come back on you ten fold.
