Karma is a Mutha....

Just when she thought she had gotten away, it came back and slapped her in the face....Karma, that is....

I have always to made it a habit to treat people right, no matter what.

I have a friend. We'll call her High Class. She wants nothing but the best. Clothes, cars, you name it. At this point, she takes care of herself, and buys her own things, so I guess it's okay. But it wasn't always that way. She has used many people on her rise to the top. Particularly men.

She feels that all men are going to hurt you in the end, so why not beat them to the punch. I told her that was an awful way to live, but I can only be a friend, I can't think for her. She used this guy, we'll call him Balla to the limit. He paid her rent in advance for a year. He bought her a new car. Gave her money whenever she wanted. Credit cards... He really loved her. She played him for a fool. Used him up! He lost his job, and while in transition to something else, he told her that they would have to slow down on spending. She was furious (and this is HIS money)! She drained him mentally and financially. I have never seen a grown man cry like that. He was so stressed out. She took him for everything he had. I really felt sorry for him, but she had no mercy. She broke it off with him because he no longer had money the way he had before. He was still cool with all of us, so he continued to come around. A few days later she brought this other guy around, and he was devastated. He tried to talk to her and reason with her, but she just treated him so cold in front of everyone over and over again. We didn't hear from him for a long time after that.

He called me a few days ago. He wanted to check in on everyone to see how we were doing, and let everyone know what was going on in his life. Now, he has opened his own engineering firm and is doing very well for himself. He is supposed to get married in the fall. High Class lost her VERY GOOD job about a week ago, and is starting something new. She is taking a huge salary cut. When she found out he was getting married, she went crazy. She is so jealous. She has been crying for the last few days. I told her it was senseless to cry. He was gone! All of that could have been hers if she would have just been patient and given this guy a chance to be a man and not a bank. Now she calling him, trying to get him back. He is not having it! I feel sorry for my friend, but I am happy for him. Happy that he got away when he did. Is that wrong? My how the tables turn!

Always treat people right because you never know...You just might miss your blessing in disguise. You never known when karma will come back on you, and this time for her, it was a mutha!

Do you believe in the power of karma? Do you feel that your current situation could be a direct consequence of the choices you have made in your life? What are your thoughts?
