Default Re: Do you believe in Karma?

I guess I always undervalue money vs things such as decreased health, activity, lost opportunities etc. And seeing this thing drawn out made me think how life would have been much better had the original incident never happened to you.

None-the-less, when we see "bad things" happening to "bad people" we are inclined to call it "Karma"....but when we see "bad things" happening to "good people", we call it bad luck, misfortune, whatever....there is a logical disconnect here....either Karma doesn't exist (clearly the case) or those good people are maybe not so deserving of the title.

Karma ain't my b!tch

Peter,
In further thinking about this thread, per my PM to you, I would like to request to shut it down.

I really never even imagined it could evolve into a religious type of thread and as I have already said, it was not the intent.

I have learned from this as I often use the word Karma without ever considering the religious aspect. I use it more as a common manner of speech used by so many.

I wish I would have named the thread differently to keep it on track. I just wanted to know if folks believe things come back to those that do good and likewise, things come back to those that don't based on the news I had heard from my attorney's office regarding the settlement of the case.

The English language will always fascinate me. What means one thing to one, means something else to another.
