Why Bad Things Happen With Good People: Is Karma For Real?

We all somewhere grew up hearing that good things happen with good people and bad things happen with bad ones. 

And, that’s how the law of karma works! That’s what most people believe, at least! These are some amazing Karma Quotes for you to better analyse the law of karma. 


So, when faced with adversity, pain, and trauma, we start questioning our karma.


Why me? Am I a bad person? What did I do wrong? Why is all this happening to me?


But is it the right way to perceive the law of karma? I think no!


As humans, when we enter this world, trials and tribulations are going to be a part of our being. One cannot shy away from difficulties and pain, no matter what. They are part and parcel of our lives. Even if you are rich or poor, bad or good, or anything, adversities can knock on your door any day, without any invitation. 


So, there’s not always an answer for “why me?”


This also puts a question mark on “why do bad things happen with good people?”


The simple answer, as far as I know, is it just happens!


Even if you are a criminal or a saint, difficulties can arrive in your life. You might get sick, lose a loved one, be cheated by a friend, and more! 


Of course, I believe how you make out of these things-will shape you in real ways. That’s where your karma works!


If somebody did something very wrong with you, so, now, are you gonna react the same way with them?


Are you also gonna use harsh adjectives for the person who hurt you, as in, a narcissist? Here are some Karma Narcissist Quotes to comprehend the repercussions of the law of karma in a relationship with a narcissist. 


If so, then I think you can question your karma. Otherwise, if you believe in the power of gratitude, forgive but don't forget, then your karma is practical and built on the right basis.


“Karma is not some sure-shot for good things happening to you. Instead, it’s one of the tools to live with calmness, patience, and composure, even if the tide is against you.”

A Self-Important Life

  “Modesty is the colour of virtue.” The essence of this saying by Diogenes, a Greek philosopher, has likely shaped our growing-up years. Indeed, to be modest and humble was the very definition of a talented person. The more intelligent one was the more modest one was expected to be. Like anything though, modesty is best had when served in moderate doses. Swing too far the other way and we’ll hit the first of the building blocks that make up our personality – self-esteem. Why is self-esteem important? Quoting Brene Brown, an American professor and author, “Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we are supposed to be and embracing who we are.” High self-esteem naturally breaks down barriers and allows us to step into vulnerability. And what is vulnerability? Accepting ourselves as we are at any given moment. The more vulnerable we allow ourselves to be, the more authentic we become. And this root of being oneself stems from the value we give ourselves – in...

Types of Meditation – Why You Can Confidently Make Seated Meditation Your Last Resort

Now, any commonplace piece might begin by defining meditation or analyzing the practice before delving into details. But this isn’t a commonplace piece. And you’re certainly not visiting a commonplace site. So, let’s cut to the chase. This piece is for those looking to understand more about their lives. Perhaps you want to begin meditation, maybe you’re looking for a change of pace or career, maybe you simply want to bring some calm into your life, and peace. But to do that, sitting in one place for any amount of time, eyes closed, sounds not just downright torturous but also alarming. I hear you. I feel you. I was in that exact space. Why does sitting quietly with the eyes closed sound so restricting, even confining? My answer may not surprise you even though I was certainly taken aback when insight dawned – restless energy. You see, I was geared up to move and my body couldn’t sit still. Every time I sat down, within a couple of minutes, I’d feel unbearably restless like I wanted to ...

The Effects of Meditation

She watched helplessly as he walked slowly to the door. Almost like he was hoping she would stop him. But that had never been her way. Today, he was leaving. Just like he had been telling her for two long years. Preparing her, steeling her for his inevitable departure. Her lips trembled as he reached the door. One hand on the doorknob, he turned to look at her one last time. “Bye Ma.” His voice came out a whisper and just for a moment, she was taken back twenty-one years ago to when he spoke his first word. Didi – a whisper, a sliver of voice just like now. His sister had shrieked in delight and picked him up, swung him around as they both laughed unabashedly. Her eyes filled with tears as she looked at him now, six foot one, and more far away than she had ever imagined him being. “Bye.” Her voice was a whisper too and she knew she was on the verge of a breakdown. If he was leaving, it had to be now. Almost as if he knew, he gave her a smile and turned away, but not before she caught ...
