Karma & more

I see this message all the time on Facebook and other Internet sites and how I would like for it to be true -I don't believe in KARMA anymore. I think we all sit back and 'hope' that it is true but I don't. In my own personal experience I have been surrounded by so much of the opposite so it brings me to this conclusion. I feel like every other day I see more & more people win that are doing so much wrong in the world. And when I say 'win' I mean they always seem to come out 'smelling like a rose' after they have done so much hurt to others. The liars, the cheats, the selfish people, thieves, & the list goes on & on. We see it all the time and we see those that are trying to live the right kind of life get kicked in the teeth. I see people treat others very badly but still those people that they are treated badly are there for them. This is something I just do not understand. I'm not giving a 'sob' story but my husband and I are good people that try to treat others with dignity and respect and we are so shocked when we hear or see of others that treat people so badly. We are not perfect people by any means but we just shake our heads in disbelief at some of the things we hear or see. And here we are for 14 years most of the time 'alone' and doing everything by ourselves. We feel proud that we have done it all on our own but sometimes it does get old, sometimes it gets lonely-especially for our kids. So it makes us wonder if we should treat people badly -maybe that's the answer? I know its not the way to be but every day we see in other situations that it seems bad behavior = people treating you better? You are probably shaking your head right now in disbelief and saying "no that's not true" but I say "isn't it?" Think about it.

More examples: I see bad Mothers get rewarded with more kids. Yes I'm going to touch base on this because it's on my mind. I feel that I am a pretty good Mother and it's something that I do well, I have given up everything to be the best Mom that I can be- but for some reason I keep getting "teased" with more children and just end up losing them to miscarriage. Just today I got reminded once again that I would be delivering another baby this month- if I would not have lost the one in June. Yes someone that was pregnant right a long with me just had her baby so I get that great reminder which saddens me more than anyone will ever realize. And this June I will get to be reminded once again of another loss because that's when I would be delivering the baby I just lost in November. Is it fair? Nope. Do I dwell? No, I try my hardest not to but there are days like today where it just truly gets to me. I do not want anyone to feel bad for me, that's not what I want I only want people to understand where I'm coming from and why I feel the way I do about certain things.  I sit back and watch other people who do not even want kids have kids one after another without a problem in the world. It does not make any sense to me whatsoever. Here again I feel like we see bad behavior get rewarded and good behavior gets thrown out the window. Where's the KARMA there?

Life is odd if you think about it, people always say "you get back what you give" -Well I don't see that being true either or maybe I'm just dealing with the wrong people, I don't know but I've tried to be nice to people, to be helpful but it doesn't seem like the statement "you get back what you give" is true. I have said over and over again that I know you are supposed to treat people like you want them to treat you but I've said for years now that my new motto is "I'm going to treat people the way they treat me." It's hard to do that because my conscience takes over & I know I shouldn't be that way but you know what? Maybe if we treated people the way they treated us it would give them a nice hard slap of reality right in the face and it would wake them up? Maybe these types of people need that because people have been too forgiving of their actions for years and they just take everyone and everything for granted and do not even see how selfish and rude they are? So many people think they are owed or entitled to so much & they aren't.

Day after day I see or hear about liars, cheats, and selfish people of the world passing straight through without KARMA ever touching them so this is why I no longer believe in KARMA because each day it gets proven that

bad behavior =rewards
good behavior = 0

So that's my take on KARMA-I just do not believe in it anymore.

That's my rant for the week, have a great week everyone!
