Have you ever felt a direct consequence to an action coming from a seemingly unrelated place? Did you do something nice and then an unconnected piece of good fortune plopped in your lap? Or have you ever acted selfishly and ended up with less than what you started with despite your hoarding attitude?
From the smallest thing to the profound I have seen this happen in life.
I know Karma . . . personally.
I built an entire YA novel around it. The idea that we are all connected and that our actions will affect everything and everyone around us--even if we don't see the ripple affect and where it goes.
So send out good things. Smile more, share often and always forgive. Because, Karma has a way of biting us in the rear if we are biters or bringing good things to those who live with love.
If you have an example of karma working in your life--good or bad--share it!

It reminds me of 'The Secret'--what you think and make important is what becomes your life.
Makes the world go round...
Absoposilutely!
Thoughts of Karma pop up every now and then in my life when I see something happening to someone that might deserve what's happening to them.
My third child was unplanned, only in that he was on his way when my second child was only 9 months old. My neighbor's husband constantly made remarks such as, "Oh, you're going to need a mini van now." and "You'll have to get two hotel rooms when you travel now since five people is more than the fire code will allow in one room."
And then BAM..Karma struck my neighbor's house. Less than a year later his wife got pregnant with twins shortly after they had their second child. Now he has four kids all age six and under.
I don't know why Karma happens but I hope that I don't get struck by lightening just for recognizing it.
