How about the saying "Don't do unto others what you don't want others to do unto you"..that's the simple explanation of Karma.I was once told by my ex-husband that it's not a catholic belief..But I think regardless what religion you have..you don't want to be treated badly,right.If you want people to be good to you..you have to be good.

Hi there!
Yes I do believe in karma. I belive that someday in the future something bad will strike at back people who do bad things. That's one way of God telling us "hey you've been bad".
That's what I am so afraid of, to be facing the worst situation in my life in the future. Thats why I try my very best to do good to others. Even if others have been bad to me I don't take revenge or anything like that. I always bear in mind I'm not the one who will judge them but the Lord.
Ciao!

I don't believe in any religion but just in a higher power which protects and guides me. But even so, I do good things and treat others the way I want to be treated. I appreciate the little things and big things. Treat my boyfriend very special because I know how lucky I am to have a guy like him and I would never want to lose him. He also treats me so extra special too, so it is not in vain.
There is another saying..."What goes around, come around...10 times harder!"
I always try to do good but I am by no means an angel.
But I definitely believe in Karma.

Hi roxanne271.
I do love my boyfriend and don't want to lose him either.I've had a lot of relationships and sometimes we question why we experience such things..and was it because we did something wrong that's why we are treated badly or not how we want them to treat us.
May you have a happy relationship with your boyfriend.That goes the same way with me. ;p

I'm a firm believer that What Goes Around Comes Around. I've experienced trying to be nice to some people that just don't get it though. I just stay away from them and sometimes pray for them.

Or what the Bible said about 'you reap what you sow'. Or one of the universal laws about action and reaction, cause and effect.
I suppose all religions are fundamentally the same - to treat others as you would want others to treat you. I've yet to come across a religion that say otherwise.

Exactly. I think it's only fair to be considerate of other people. It will also benefit us to think about what the consequences of our actions might be to others. What we do comes back twofold, heck a hundredfold even. Better be safe than sorry.

Yes.But admit it...it's hard to be good.
We hate being critized but we love noticing people around us..about the way they look,they dress up,the way they talk and give ideas..we can't help sometimes to give bad comments and worst critize a person.
But Karma is good ...because it gives us the idea that we need to be fair and good to all people we encounter. ;p
Happy mylotting. ;p

I definitely believe in Karma. What comes around,goes around. If we treat someone badly today, we will be treated badly in some other days. I always believe we should not do anything bad to others. We need to treat people good before we are treated good too.

I definitely believe that what goes around comes around. I don't "do what's right" because I wat it done to me, I do what is right because IT IS RIGHT. I do what is right because I sincerely mean it, not because I'm scared of people.
