Default Re: Karma - Love it or hate it?

Yeah it just gets all weird. If Kharma isn't someone winning the lottery, but Kharma IS someone who's a bastard winning it, making more money and eventually loses it all -- well, shit, we think that's great. How is it? Isn't the scummy guy who lived it like a king for say seven years had it better than the average schmo who's still struggling? Hell yeah! So where' the Kharma?

And then there's the whole... so and so lives an improverished life, let's say currently. Is he been given that because in the last life he was a rich bastard who cared about no one, and this is his come uppance? Or is this life in preperation for the next one in which that person's Kharma will be rewarded by being born into the family of a billionaire?

Chicken and the egg ... yin and yang ... And then there's the more generally accepted "we got one life, and bang, that's it" theory .... Think about it too hard and grey matter will explode!
