What Is Karma and How Does It Affect Your Life

Karma refers to the idea that your actions influence your future experiences. Good deeds often lead to positive outcomes, while negative actions may bring challenges. Understanding karma encourages mindful choices and personal growth by recognizing the cause-and-effect relationship in life.

As we all know, tis best to move forward in life and not tempt it. Pay it forward, that type of thing. Most of you who find me interesting enough to read know that the ex tripped the light fantastic in favor of someone else. Things have come to a conclusion that is most satisfying. Purely on a cat at the cream level. The 'girlfriend' is out now, and what is more intriguing ( in my opinion ) is that she was cheating on him with someone else and deep in the throes of heartbreak at 2 year relationship gone horribly awry, she's moved in with new person. What a winner, on both their parts. So *big thumbs up* to my ex-husband and his choices. Ain't Karma a bitch? Ain't she GRAND? I can't quit smiling like the Cheshire, and I feel no shame in that. Not even a twinge.

Awwwww...good for you VB. Yet another who found that those lovely greener pastures on the other side of the fence just weren't as green or even "real" grass for that matter! Karma is a biatch for real! And we do reap what we sow, that's for damn sure!

You know. I'd not bring it up to him. Woman has much more class than that. I keep my own counsel on the matter. He couldn't meet my eyes the other day though. That says much. And like Erma Bombeck said: "The grass is always greener...over the SEPTIC TANK."

Trust me...he is WELL AWARE of his mistake and what he lost, but guess what? That's HIS cross to bear now. I don't know if you are still interested in reconnecting with him again, as none of us know what the future holds, but trust me, he is well aware of what he's done. Nobody is perfect, so I try not to judge, because I am WELL aware of my own skeletons, and I'm well aware and have felt her (Karma's) wrath before too...and likely will again someday 😒 that's a reality.

I enjoyed Erma very much. πŸ™‚ And no, I'm not interested in reconnecting on that level. He caused far too much pain and havoc in my life and the childrens. There is no going back. That door is closed to him, forever. What is done once, will be done again.

Again, spoken like a true earth sign! LOL. I didn't want to be too intrusive, as I know how a lot of women are, so I tread VERY lightly when talking about their exes, etc. I try to be respectful πŸ˜‰ but yes, people don't get it - once someone has completely broken and irradicated your life, mind, and spirit there is no way in Hades you can (nor should you) go back. And as you so aptly stated, "What is done once, will be done again." I can attest to that fact too. Ahhh, the joie de vivre! LOL! All we can do is live and learn.

I tread lightly with Karma, she's a foxy minx alright. I tend to get lambasted quickly if I screw up and step in a pile of something warm and brown. It gets us all in the end.

Yeah, my Karma typically kicks in pretty darn quickly. I'm not one of those people that gets paid back from doing something badly years later, it usually happens w/in 0-21 days! LOL, but the reverse is true too, because Karma isn't all bad - if I do something good, I get paid back rather quickly too, so in the grander scheme of life, I'm all good. I try to keep my nose clean, stay out of trouble and just chill; however, I teeter on the line sometimes and do stuff I know full well I shouldn't. That's just how I roll!

Ohhh intrude away. LOL I'm a pretty honest person. What's done is done, you're right. Very Earthy of me, oh DEAR. πŸ™‚
And the same on the Karmic debt load, a nice little clop to the back of the head is good for me from time to time.
Agreed on all points, my aren't we Tau's just full of good damned sense. *bigging up our sign shamelessly*

Yes, we all get to big for our britches from time to time and need to be taken down a notch. It ain't always fun or pretty, but if it keeps me from making bigger and worse mistakes, then I'll take my "clop on the head" biatch about it a little and try to learn from the experience, so as NOT to repeat it! OY!
Hey, and you can shamelessly promote our sign, if we don't do it who willβ€”?? LOL!
