Karma is defined as "fate as the result of one's actions in successive incarnations." To me, I've always taken that as you get what you put out into the universe back. If you do good, good will be done to you. As well as, if you do bad, bad will come back to you tenfold. I also believe that when one does good deeds, it has to be done from the heart. You can't do good with the intent of what you will get from it. That's not how karma works to me.
I find it funny that some people really don't believe in karma. They do not believe that their actions have consequences. They live their lives with no remorse. I cannot live like that. I'm too conscious of things, of life. Yes, I know we all have free will. But, every action has a subsequent reaction. Everything we put out into the universe has a way of coming back around. It's almost like a boomerang. It's just that simple. What we do matters, even when we think they don't. Good karma is what we all should strive for. I know that may be harder to accomplish than just saying it.
I often wonder about people who I know are doing all kinds of wrong and bad things. But they always seem to be on the receiving end of something great. It makes me question karma sometimes. Why does it seem that bad people are always rewarded and good people seem to struggle? I know enough to know that everything is not what it seems. I can't worry about another's karma. All I can do is continue to be me. Doing good because it's in my heart. My karma is my own. I'm in control of it. What's your definition of karma? Let's discuss.
My beliefs! I'm just gonna list the things I believe in.
* I believe in ME. - That is the most important thing. It's not a conceited issue either. My confidence in myself determines how far I will go. I don't let anyone else's real or make believe perception of me determine how I see myself. I see me clearly when I look into a mirror or introspectively.
* I believe in God. - I'm a Christian, Baptist but I'm not overly religious. My relationship with God is my own and cannot be defined or quantified by any one else.
* I am Pro-Life - for myself and Pro-Choice for everyone else. I don't think I have the right to decide anything for any other able bodied person.
* I'm a Democrat - I'm also a President Barack Obama supporter (since 2004). I believe in politics & government.
* I believe in trust - Loyalty and honesty also fall into this category for me. Once you have my trust, you're golden. But, if you ever do anything to jeopardize that, I will be done.
* I believe in karmic energy. - what you put out is what you get back. I'm not a perfect person, but I try my best to do right by people.
* I believe in solo dating. - I think a person needs to spend time with themselves & enjoy their own company. I go to the movies, get spa pedicures, and go out to eat by myself every once and a while. If I don't love my company, how can I expect anyone else to?
* I believe that black is beautiful. - In my opinion, black people as a whole are beaten down on in the press and in general. I think its important to have a healthy outlook on who you are, on your race and love for it all. I make sure my nieces and nephews know that the color of their skin may differ but all of their black is beautiful.
* I believe in love. - Romantic love. I strongly believe that its out there for everyone. Love isn't a tangible thing. I am waiting to experience an adult love. I feel it will be great.
