Karma, The Thread | It is impossible to build one’s own happiness on the unhappiness of others

I do believe it hard and it is part of my life. I do everything possible to help others.

As for the positive things, I have had the way in which I help people professionally and they come back, they remember me, and they thank me.

Many people in life told me that I couldn't achieve much in life... It's not missing, for example, 2 years ago a person insulted me and underestimated me, once I confronted him a couple of years ago and he took what he deserved , he was fired... he retired from the medical profession... instead I am now a specialist and I am far above that person, who insulted me.

It to do with consequences and justice which most people would agree with.

I don't agree with karma as a concept, for example if someone is born with a disability it's due to their bad deeds in a past life.

Hey Gaf, I enjoy watching videos and reading stories about instant or delayed karma. Whether good or bad. Let's use this thread to post karmic stories and events across the globe. Feel free to relay your personal anecdotes as well.

To get started, here's a few examples of bad karma.



The first one is funny. The second one I know we might want to laugh, but serious injuries may have occurred to innocent parties over simply verbal rage.

I'm not so sure I believe in karma. More so in people playing their cards well or badly.

Road rage is never cool and that guy should have been paying attention. He's at fault so I feel no sympathy for him. I do feel sorry for the car he rear ended though.

I was in a taxi in Chicago once and the cab driver and another car were swerving at each other doing 80, screaming belligerently. I do not fuck around with road rage my man and neither should anyone else.

I still recall some of my personal "instant karma" moments (like getting smacked in the face) no matter how cringy the memories are they still prove important lessons when trying to be better person today

Back in my younger, drinking days, one of my buddies had his hands in his pockets as he's walking down the street to the next bar. For whatever reason he shouts something stupid at a guy going the other way. He's got his head turned backward to keep yelling and misses the curb. Since his hands are in his pockets, he lands face first in the street.

Life is art.
