Karma

Blessings...we all have our share of them in different forms - people, good fortune, health, happiness, contentment. All we need is to open our eyes wide enough to recognize blessings in our lives. And there lies the problem. The inablitiy in most of us to really see their presence. We are so blinded by our quest towards life itself that we forget to stop for one second and thank our blessings or even acknowledge them in whatever form they exist in our lives. Isn't that where we get "karma" into existence? We fail to even be grateful for the good things and blame "karma" on the bad things. But isn't failing to acknowledge blessings bad karma itself?

Why is it that we are so attracted towards the bad happening in our lives that we literally don't want to see the good? And if these bad things/events are so bad, isn't it the best to just let go and take a moment and look at the silver lining? Something good always comes out of hurt. If not anything else, a lesson. A lesson that teaches you so many things to tread safe the next time. Isn't that a blessing in itself? And if doing good and reaping good is all a matter of "karma" then isn't the opposite true too? And if each one of us is aware of this, wouldn't it be so much more easy to go about life - Truth, loyalty, promises, beliefs all upheld!
