choices vs. karma

"I am the owner of my karma .
I inherit my karma.
I am born of my karma.
I am related to my karma.
I live supported by my karma.

Whatever karma I create, whether good or evil, that I shall inherit."

Two of my personal favorite reasons to believe in karma, are that it represents ultimate justice as everyone will harvest the results of their actions, and even if karma would not exist, as long as I try to avoid negative actions, the world would be a better place to live in for everyone anyway.

Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.

It has been said : Do not think a small virtue will not return in your future lives.
Just as falling drops of water will fill a large container, The little virtues that steadfast accumulate will completely overwhelm you.

Karma is not something complicated or philosophical. Karma means watching your body, watching your mouth, and watching your mind.Trying to keep these three doors as pure as possible is the practice of karma.

There is something to be said about positive thinking. I am at the point in my life that I need to have some releases, make new changes and go for the betterment of myself - mentally, physically and emotionally. I know in my heart the mistakes I have made and what the cost I had to endure with those mistakes in mind. But why do I , why do we, make the same mistakes when we know the end result? People do not change, we change our thought processes to make it fit the current situation. Okay, yes we learn from our past mistake but do we really? Is that when the change comes in hand to fit the situation?

I know it seems to you reading this I may be talking in circles... I am to a point. This is how I battle and work things out. I am an OVER thinker... the explanation will come soon...
