Karma’s a bitch.
I like her.
A lot.
.....Or rather, she’s bitch to those who refuse to listen to themselves.
You know, to those who choose to ignore their own heart as it pleads to you, screams to you, to listen to it’s wise words .
Some people seem to take delight in being ‘master of their emotions’, as thought that somehow implies that cognitive thought process are superior in qualitative content.... More reliable in some way....Yeah, right...these people aren’t the sharpest tools in the shed.
By discounting , by ignoring the validity of what your heart says to you, you relegate the importance of emotions as lesser than valid when compared to thought process.
And this is a very dangerous position to take.
Why?
Because you're sending a signal out to mademoiselle Karma, telling her that her expertise may soon be required…
What you do when you relegate the hearts messages to ‘second place’ is compromise all the valuable things in life that make’s us, as humans, live a colorful , fantastic , worthwhile, existence.
When you place the heart in a secondary position to thought process...
Morals are relegated.
Ethics are ignored.
Values are re-calibrated - making the emotions in life lose their significance.
You invite emptiness into your heart, by ignoring what the heart has to say.
And karma doesn’t like that.
Not one little bit.
EVERYONE (except the mentally ill) have an innate sense of 'justice', of 'rights' and 'wrongs'.
Yeah, they can vary from one culture to another, but still follow a general rule.
A thread though life itself.
‘Do not initiate aggression’, or ‘ do not steal’, for example.
These moral values have emerged from all different cultures independent of each other.
And the underlying ethos behind these morals?... is that you do not shit on people.
You do not initiate negative actions against another.
You can logicalize your incorrect actions as much as you like.
You can drown out the moral voice coming from the heart as much as you wish.
You can ignore reality.
...But when these 'universal morals' are transgressed, Karma opens up one sleepy eye...
...and starts to take notice...
While you may fool yourself that you're beyond the morals confines that the universe had decided - the universe cares not what your opinion is.
You're part of it, not separate from it - and there's no 'opt in' clause.
You come from it - not the other way around.
Do you behave a like an evil twat and disregard moral codes?... Do you deny the reality of that even to yourself?
Do you compromise the 'universal morals' in the name of expediency and social approval?
Did you just have a blowout while driving, or get shunted by another vehicle?
Did you lose your car keys, or have an accident?
Do you have bad luck?
Is this is Karma giving you a little nudge - letting you know that by your actions, you're unbalancing the universal moral thread that runs through some quantum soup in some way?
And lets not forget - karma is at the OCD level of needing a balance.
She's totally fucking obsessed with it, in fact.
So after while, and after some 'nudging' to let you know that you’re disrupting the universal equilibrium, she loses patience.
When Karma’s reminds you of your 'universal moral transgressions' and they go unheeded, she gets pissed.
Like, really , really fucked off.
What was once a fender bender, now becomes stomach ulcer.
What was lost keys, now becomes a serious health issue.
She's always trying to keep the equilibrium in all things, you see.
Always.
Karma never stops and time has no meaning - not to her.
She just wants balance.
So next time you downvote in a toxic and negative manner, for example – you may get a speeding ticket - and then you might find yourself losing your job or suddenly suffering from insomnia - Maybe that's Karma leaving you her calling card.
..And if you refuse to read the message that she’s keeps leaving you?
She’ll call again - of that you can be sure - And payment will be exacted.
It's not an 'opt in' system.
It's also important to remember that Karma is seriously, seriously, lazy .
She’d prefer nothing more , than to never be asked to ‘go to work’.
...So when she IS asked to restore some equilibrium, and her messages go unheeded, she'll make damn sure that there’s interest to pay for having the temerity to ignore her...
Insomnia one week, could be a nervous breakdown the next.
She hates being ignored.
'The ego of man' tries to convince themselves that they're the masters of the universe, and Karma wets herself from laughter at the prospect of that..
'The ego of man' tries to tell themselves that they are in control of everything - and then Karma pushes them off a roof, just for a laugh.
'The ego of man' tries to fool themselves into believing they are a god, and Karma leans over to god and asks him if he wants her to go and give the egomaniac a dose of hemorrhoids..…
Life is very simple, yet 'the intelligent egocentric' (oxymoron, or just plain moron - take yer pick) tries to find complexity where there is no need for any.
Universal morals are simple - They are reactive justifications to an injustice.
The lack of adherence to basic universal morals are not.
This create's complexity.
You may fool some of the people some of the time, and even yourself all of the time - but Karma doesn't play the deception- or self deception - game.
Never forget that she’s shed more intelligence while washing her hair last night than any egotistical moron could ever hope to possess.
She see’s though all the self deception and the willful ignoring of reality – that’s what she does.
That's who she IS.
She reminds you where you’re going wrong if you have the ears to listen to the universe.
She tries to show you where you're disrupting the equilibrium.
But never forget that because she’s lazy and impatient - and would prefer to never actually do any work whatsoever - don’t expect any leniency from her for not listening to your heart.
How’s that ulcer coming along?
Are you sleeping well?
Just as 'good luck' is Karma giving you a kiss, some token of affection for doing 'the right thing' - not being lucky, is karma also telling you something.
Listen to her, and accept that there is ahigher power at work.
Kill your ego.
Trying to decipher her wisdom is akin to a 5 year old trying to comprehend all Nietzsche's works in an hour..
Sure, you can give it a go - but the chances are that you’re not 'getting it' whatsoever - and most probably getting it all completely wrong.
....Here’s the good part….
You don’t need to understand it.
You just need to listen to your moral code – and mademoiselle Karma will do the rest for you.
What she does is not under your control.
Or ever will be.
Use your moral compass accordingly.
Or don’t.
It's up to you.
Free will is a responsibility.
Morals and integrity are a part of the price you pay for that free will.
It can be a delicious journey , or it can be a nightmarish experience, depending on how you choose to exercise your responsibility.
Poor health , sleepless nights, emotional turmoil, toxic relationships, and perpetual bad luck, could well be the manifestation of poor moral decisions, lack of integrity, and choosing to live a life of delusion...
K.I.S.S Keep it simple, stupid.
Listen to your heart and give it the respect that it deserves.
Or make it unnecessarily complex - and be a total fucking idiot.
Either way, you ain't ever gone swindle Karma....
