In this world we have people who do the right thing and people who don’t. And the frustrating thing for those that do the right thing is that it seems that those that don’t, hardly have anything go ‘wrong’. Firstly, I want to say that ‘bad’ things happen to good people. That is life, remember we all have lessons that we have to go through and that make us what we are, so ‘bad’ things happen to bad people as well, you may just not recognize it.
The thing for good people to remember is that when we are living authentically, whenever we make a decision we think of the consequences, we think about how our decisions will impact others and then we make our decisions based on the best possible outcome for everyone, sometimes to our own detriment.
Now, bad people don’t do that, they don’t give a fuck who they hurt, how they hurt or care about the consequences of their actions, and because of that they will steamroller over everyone and everything to get what they want, so it appears that they ‘have it all’ or that ‘everything is going well for them’. They get to places and get things faster because they have no soul, no compassion, however, are they happy? Most likely not, because they usually want more and more and more and keep stomping over people to get it.
You may not ‘have it all’ but are you happy? Do you have friends who care for you and love you? Do you have family that you adore? If the answer is yes to any one of those, then you are actually far better off than someone that is constantly striving to be better than everyone else.
And karma does come around, but you have to remember that it may not be in this lifetime, it may be in their next.
