Karma

I believe in Karma. I believe in karma like I know my own name. I believe that when someone does something undesirable to another, the law of the universe will give it right back. Maybe not from the person that they did wrong, but it always comes back...somehow. An example? After numerous court fights over child support with my ex husband (he refused to provide financial statements to the court, basically making life a financial hell for the children and I), I gave in. I couldn't take it anymore, mentally, or financially, so yes, I quit. I thought, "To hell with it. If the money's that important to him, he can keep it. This isn't worth the financial or emotional stress that it's causing. I'll let his family know that they should make sure they put it in his coffin when he dies." The children and I live in a nice neighborhood. So does the ex. Since I put a stop to all of the court nonsense, the children and I have had a peaceful existence. Life goes on. We're happy. But the law of the universe has been true to him. Since the end of the court battles, someone has stolen his identity, racking up his credit cards to the tune of thousands of dollars. His car has been broken into twice. His house (that he has since sold) had been broken into once (someone tried to literally take the front door off of the hinges). He recently bought the penthouse suite in what we thought was an extremely secure building. Someone broke into that place, taking valuable electronic equipment among other things. The building surveillance caught the thief leaving the building dragging a large box and wearing my ex husband's clothes! All this in the small span of 3 years. I almost wish that I could take credit for any of his misfortune, but karma beat me to it. If you give it, you're gonna get it back. Karma's a bitch my friends. Martinis for everyone!! Debbie.
