As much time I've been putting in, I know that the universe is working in ways that are in my favor. I've been working SO much and SO hard that karma has been sending nice little bonuses my way. For example, I've been stressing out so much about bills so I got this other job. Well, today I went into work (on my day off) and found out that our company had gifted us $25 to spend at the store, which was perfect timing because that meant that I could buy all of the xmas gifts that I want to send back to MI, when I was worrying about how I was going to do in the first place.
I feel like, religion is one thing, but my belief in karma isn't so off. If you're good to yourself and to others, the universe will be good to you. If you're bad to yourself and others, you'll get that negative energy back times three. It's really just, you know, the golden rule. Treat others the way you'd want to be treated. I don't see what's so wrong with that.
Thanksgiving this year was good. I was worried since we're so far from home, and so far from our families that it'd be terrible and depressing. Thankfully, we have our dear friends who are going through the same thing. We met up with them and a few more folks who were missing their families, and had a fantastic thanksgiving meal. We each brought traditional things from our family's thanksgivings, and shared with one another. It felt good. It felt like we belonged. We might be doing it for xmas as well! I wish I had taken pictures of it though.
I finally sent out my xmas cards today. They were kind of boring and unoriginal, but I just don't have the time at the moment to handmake them all like I usually would. Ugh!
It snowed today in Texas. I had to document this.
Sorry this will be a little short, but hopefully I'll update again soon!
Why does blogspot think this post was from November 20th?
ReplyDeleteAnd on karma. I don't view it as anything supernatural (I know, shocking that Anthony doesn't believe in something supernatural!). There is something to getting good things in return for doing good. It's a common sense thing, I'd say. I mean, if you only do evil... you will "attract", for lack of a better term, evil. Same with only doing good.
What a ramble that was. I miss you two crazy kids.
Okay, everytime someone talks about karma all I can think about is MY NAME IS EARL..."do good things, and good things happen! do bad things, and bad things happen!"
ReplyDeleteAlthough I still wish I got to see you regularly...I'm glad that things seem to be going well! And I'm VERY jealous that you have snow already! It just started snowing here today!! yay! :)
