This blog was inspired by Michael Baisden's status. He asked "If it's true what goes around comes around, why are bad people doing good?" I ask myself that question everyday. All the status comments were terrific. My response is you reap what you sow, more than you sow and sooner (or later) than you sow. Like my mom says: You can get by, but you won't get away. That's true because when you think you've gotten by and you're going on with your life, that's when karma will get you. When karma gets you, it will leave a mark when life starts breaking down. It's the law of reciprocity (or golden rule), do unto others as you would have them do unto you. If you sow goodness, you will reap goodness. The same principle applies to negativity, you get back what you put in. Take the vilest person who is going on with life without a care in the world; they think they're getting by but when he/she least expects it, that's when karma strikes. I do the best I can everyday so good can happen in my life. I couldn't live with myself knowing I did someone wrong and didn't make it right. I'll take good over bad karma all day, everyday.
I totally agree. Many people may be suffering their reaping as we speak. We don't know their personal hell even though they look great outwardly, so we don't know what is going on in their lives. I do know that bad things still happen to good people and that may be life and circumstances but in general good does follow good. I stand by the phrase that its best to die doing the right thing than live doing the wrong thing.
ReplyDeleteThat's the world we live in, where bad things happen to good people. It goes back to the Fall Of Man blog I wrote earlier. When I die, I want to die in peace. I don't want to go out on a negative note. Many people aren't going to tell you the hell they're going through in their lives as a result of karma because 9 times out of 10, they did it to themselves.
