    karma

    Well the kind of karma Im talking about is the kind that is spoken of by Buddhists. Buddhists see desire as the force that causes suffering in the world. So if your motive of doing a good deed stems from a personal desire for something (good fortune) than you arn't really getting good karma. Thus if you see your good karma as a bank account to be filled up for yourself, you are missing the point. Karma is the force that keeps the world in balance. I think. Somebody might have to look the exact definition up. Does this make sense?

    Basically do good and don't expect anything in return. Do it because it is the right thing to do, not because karma might reward you for it later.

    Greg. What would Bob Marley think about your situation. hes on your Avatar so maybe you could start by listening to some of his music. That guy went through a lot of shit in his life. Hes seen things some of us couldn't even imagine. Yes he was always positive. Fuck Karma. Maybe its there maybe its not. its out of your hands anyways. Thant is not the point. The point is that in life you have to stay positive no matter what and since YOU do have control of your life and not karma, you must take hold of yourself and grab life by the balls. Staying healthy, both mentally and physically help a great deal. Maybe its time to hit the gym? Maybe you do already. If you do your already a step a head of the rest.
    simple guidelines for my life.

    There are always more woman that would love to be with a great man.

    There is always money to be made.

    Maintaining a healthy self is crucial to success.

    Integrity and character are everything. Without your word, you don't mean shit.

    Help others out. You are lucky enough to be in a good situation. there are always others that have it worse off. we tend to forget this one all the time in life. 1 simple sign of help could change ones life forever.

    think positive and know that you really can do anything. No shit its true. I have a million reasons why this works.

    Stick to these and add your own. You can be the most bad ass motherfucker in both life and success if you want to. Believing in yourself is the first step.

    Its funny how all the good people in life are either shot or become products of their own demise.

    You can be kind and still be assertive and proactive, and get what you really need without hurting others.
    that is so true and well said. life will throw many challenges in front of you in life you need to assess why these things have happened so you can learn from it and your armed with the knowledge you need to prevent the same things happening again in the future, i do believe in karma but some time karma isnt just about good and bad but teaching us lessons along the way.
