Karma

I believe in karma.  What goes around comes around.  Some of it I believe is so that you can gain better perspective.  See situations from a different view.  To feel and understand what another person has gone through.  You break someone's heart, your heart in turn gets broken.  You string someone along, you in turn get strung along by someone else.  Your friends watch you suffer in a situation you allow yourself to stay in, you in turn get to watch someone else go through the same thing.

Doesn't always have to be negative things which come back around.  This of course also applies to positive things.  You smile at someone, you typically will get an immediate smile in return.  Sometimes the nice things we do take time to come back around.  Sometimes it's hard to see the good things that go back and forth.  They are often small, much like a smile.  But that doesn't make them any less important.

It can be easy to lose sight of the positive things.  To focus only on the heartache you see and feel in your world. Sometimes heartache comes in strange forms, such as watching your friends find happiness while you are still searching for it.  The people you love and care about find their happy ending while you are still in the middle or even beginning of your story.  Hard not to compare and say "where's my happy ending?"

For me... music is what gets me through my day.  I have found the following song especially helpful to me.  Even when karma may be hitting you hard with negative or painful things making it seem like all is lost, this reminds me not to give up on my "happy ending."

"Don't Let Go"

If you're feeling down

Hold on tight and baby don't let go
This too will pass
You've gotta believe in the power of love
So don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go

Sometimes life can drive you crazy
I know how hard that it can be
When the problems come together
You've got real hard to feel at ease
Someday somewhere somehow I know
The love you want it will be there
Someday somehow

To the questions in your mind
