omg! that would be some fuckin hardcore karma.


I didnt mean to make this long of a post, but I did. It's my deepest feelings on Karma, and reincarnation. I'm not the type to talk about this kind of thing regularly, and most people don't know that I feel this way because I play everyday life as normal as I can, but deep down, I feel that there is something more. For those not interested in somebody elses stupid story of why they believe in karma and reincarnation... dont waste your time reading this. Even I myself realize that I may be totally off center for believing in something that I have no proof of, but, that's what makes me okay with it... I can accept that. But for those who have strong feelings about it... you may appreciate it.



I believe in karma, and I believe I believe (yeah, twice) in reincarnation. Sometimes I just get this feeling that I've had other lives, and been hurt in them, but learned a lot along the way. I have watched my maturity level skyrocket incredibly fast over the last few years, faster than I think it should have. Ive got more wisdom than I think I have acquired in the 20 years of this life alone. I dont have to make mistakes to learn my lessons, I just come to realize what is right and what is wrong, and what kind of things make people misunderstand your intentions, and how to avoid that, and how to react when you don't understand people, and I figure these things out before I ever find myself in those types of situations. Granted, it's called growing up, but I have watched other people, and it's just not the same.

Even though I think I've got wisdom from other lifetimes, I still see that I have some growing to do in this life before I am smart enough, or strong enough to use it. I think you go this process in each life... you'd have to. I've developed patience though, and learned how to accept things as they come, because I have seen my progress and realize that there is more on the way. I've done stupid things but was never so unwise that I didnt know the difference. I've never gotten into any real trouble in my life because of that.

Over my life, from seeing the way other people act, I have realized that there has always been a huge difference between me and most other people in my age group. The kind of thing that I cant even discuss with many adults, because they just can't relate. It's always been that way. Since I was 15, I've been friends with many people over twice my age, (mostly because I can't relate with many people my age, or vice versa) and I am usually more mature than them, and know how to accept other people better. They just need a few more lives to figure everything out.

About karma in particular.. totally. It plays itsself out for sure. I have always done my best to treat people fairly, and I believe that karma sticks up for me. I've also known people that have made me so mad from the way they treat people, and trick people, and lie and cheat... but I've seen it come back to them. It does. And like youngvr4 said... even if it's not in this lifetime, it will come back to them. So don't get so mad that you feel you have to do karma's job since it isn't working. Focus on your life, and the good things that you can do, yourself. Don't let that kind of thing build up a negative energy. That's unfair to you, and it will throw you off balance. Let karma do its job, and treat people fairly. Bad things happen to me sometimes, but better things happen to me more frequently. I believe it is because of my selflessness, and I would like to see more people understand that it takes patience, and it takes a gracious eye to see that every cloud has a silver lining.

My ex girlfriend hurt me very badly, and it caused me to do what I think will be the biggest mistake of my life. I spent a lot of my time trying to think of the most hurtful things I could say to her. All I did, was tell her what she would have realized over the next 10 years of her life. She would have needed that long in order to deal with it properly, but I forced her to hear it all at once, and I should not have done that. I was out of place, and I do believe that I messed her head up. That is the most painful thing to me, because even though she hurt me, I still have love for her. And now, there is nothing I can do to change what I've done, but she will be the one who has to deal with it. If I could change anything in my life, I would have walked away hurt, and said nothing, because all I did was make it worse for myself, and even worse.... I made it worse on her. That was probably the biggest learning experience that I will ever go through in my life. I've learned so much about myself, just from that, and from it I've felt pain that was way deeper than what it really should have been. I got the impression that I put her through pain equal to something I have felt in a past life, and I deserved to feel it again too. That pain that I felt, and still occasionally feel, is what Karma is telling me I deserve. I've learned my lesson. And you can believe that I will never say anything to hurt somebody ever again.


do I believe in karma..... hehe.. yes.

Karma? Nope, don't believe in it. I do however believe in cause and effect. If you're an asshole on a regular basis, eventually it's going to get you into trouble. Not because of karma, but because one day you'll piss the wrong person off. Then you "get what's coming to you."
