~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are many things in life I can't explain........some I ponder on......some I look at in wonder & amazement....without even questioning their reason......and then there are those that I shake my head at..........feeling bewildered and shocked...thinking.....what on earth is wrong with this situation.......what is wrong....with this "person"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is this last one...the one I shake my head at....that is on my mind lately. I am a kind person...I never have been.......nor ever will be the kind of person that hurts someone on purpose.....Oh...I know I have hurt people...by my actions or words in my lifetime..but it was never done with a hurtful or malicious intention....That's just not who I am.......
Now...do not misunderstand me ............I am also not one to stand for injustice either..... If I see a wrong doing..... or know of a wrong that's being done to someone..I will speak up in a heartbeat....If someone has done me wrong.......well.....I can be pushed only so far.......then I will speak my mind....and say what needs to be said...THEN...I forgive.....forget....and move on .... 98% of the time...
..when someone hurts you......it was unintentional.............they never meant to hurt you.........BUT..what about the other 2% ........that 2% category..that DID mean to hurt you........those that hurt you on purpose....and know exactly what they are doing....this is something I cant explain......
I believe our world is 98% wonderful........yes.....there is bad....there are horrific things done by horrific people.......evil things done by evil people.....and bad things done by bad people........these make up the 2% category!!!!.....
They vary a bit.........this 2% group.....these "2%ers"......some are absolute monsters...some are evil........and some are just plain bad......but ultimately........ they all have one thing in common.......they have no conscience......no morality...no ethics....no trigger that says "Hey..STOP...this is wrong"......How do "those" who reside in this 2% category live with themselves????? This is something I can't explain............
So what do you do.... how do you react..how do you handle & deal with one of those "2%ers".....????? Some would say....it would depend on the particular "2%" individual and their actions...as to the correct course to take......be they monster....be they evil....or just plain bad.........and ...YES.....definitely some of those nasty "2%ers" bear more "Action" than others..BUT...... what about those "just plain bad" "characters"??? What do you do with "them"?????
Well.....as Jane Austen would say..."Bad characters come to bad ends!!!!".........OH..these "2%ers" might "think" they are thriving...but really..........how much time do you think these "2%ers" spend on "thinking".....other than on their next plot to harm others that is....??? I would say....not much at all...IF ANY!!!
But WHY do bad things happen you ask.......why do these "2%ers" exist???? ......well..how would we know good....if there were no bad..........OR.....
Perhaps to remind us ........of just how wonderful our lives are....&.....how very sad "their" lives are.......Perhaps...so we remember..to be ever thankful for the good we have...and for who "WE" are.............But ultimately......This is something I can't explain...............
However....I believe 100%...with all my heart.... without a shred of doubt....... that God exist...... I believe wholeheartedly In KARMA.........& You will always...ALWAYS........"Reap What You Sow"!!!!
This concludes my Wednesday ramblings!!!

12 delightful friends dropped in for a visit:
I agree 100% Doreen. Very well stated...
nicely said..:)
Doreen,
you make an excellent point ,"what goes around comes around"
Those "2 percenters" are sure a sad thing to have in the mix, aren't they?
Hi Doreen ...Wow your new blog graphics look Beautiful ...You always have an eye for such Beauty !!
So true regarding your ramblings ..the majority don't tend to hurt and most the time don'w even know they did ...We all mean well the majority of the time ..
And I agree there are those that are just purely mean ..I guess there must be a reason ..it's hard to imagine anyone being mean ..just because ...it's the Hidden things in life that create how we react ..Maybe their secrets are to much to endure ..and they lash out at the world...I don't know ..but I would like to think that ..because I hate to think people are rotten for no reason at all.
What a nice compliment you were paid ..How special ..to have such an incredible buyer !!!
Hope you are having a Beautiful Day !!!

Well said!
Thanks for dropping by my blog!

I like your blog too. Thanks for putting me on your list! I so agree with you on this post. Justice is God's dealing out another opportunity for that 2% to change. Even those of us who don't aim to be mean still need some 'karma' to make us more compassionate and wise from time to time. Sometimes we judge too fast or too harshly. (speaking from my own circumstances) We all have our ways of needing a good kick in the butt sometimes, some a bigger kick than others. xo (great topic to post about)
Hi Doreen welcome back, see we all behaved while you were gone, no 2%'s here :D.
Congrat's on your great sales on the EWM, so well deserved. See you on the 1st.
Whatever you decide to do with the ad is fine with me. I happen to really like the one you created...so you got my vote.
There is tale associated with those that do not care or consider the feelings of others.
It is called the peasant syndrome.There once was a peasant that owned a cow. She was a beautiful creature and the peasant shared her milk with the families in the village.
One of the villagers was so jealous of the peasant's cow that he took her and sold her to a traveling gypsy.Little did the villager realize that he had taken the source of milk and cheese from the children of the village, two of which were his own.
Moral of the story be careful what you envy and take care not to covet that which is not yours.
That said there is little one can do with that small percent except to be thankful you are NOT part of it!
Have a great Memorial Day weekend Doreen!

Awww... I'm sorry for whatever has happened, Doreen... like you said, what goes around comes around.
You hang in there, though!
I've tried to live a good life and instill that in my children. Be kind. Be honest. Be thoughtful. Be loving. Think about how your actions and words affect others, but most importantly, remember...Mama believes in karma and whatever mean and hurtful thing you do to others, will eventually come back to you. So far it's working!
Great post Doreen!
I love getting a glimpse into your life! Very different and interesting! Great photos!
