Time and Karma
When a bird is alive it eats ants and worms, when it dies;the ants and worms eats the bird.One tree can make millions of match sticks, it takes one match stick to burn down millions!
Circumstances can change in the blink of an eye at any time!! don't devalue or hurt anyone in this life!
You maybe powerful today but TIME is more powerful than you!!

I have a story about my father and KARMA, when he was newly married he had a friend who needed money desperately , so he lent him 200 pounds , it was a lot of money in 1955. He was supposed to get the money back in one month, but never did . My mother was very angry with my father for ever having lent the money , she needed it to buy new furniture for their new house they had just moved in to. My father never told my mother who he lent the money to , because he knew she would pester him for it. When my father decided to leave my mother he signed over the house to her , he was not going to make a scene and make her sell it , it meant so much to her in her materialistic fashion, so he always said , let her keep it , thats whats important to her , only money and possessions. I was amazed at my dads reasoning , how he could be so calm and unfussed by someone who thought she was cleverer than him and trying to squeeze him dry.
My mother had to buy old furniture that everyone was throwing out at the time , all antiques...no one wanted such stuff in NZ in the fifties, they all wanted chrome and formica . For 20 pounds she furnished her entire house with antiques.
One day a letter came from a lawyer in NZ to my father.... the man he'd lent the 200 pounds toin 1955 had died and left my father all his money. With a letter saying he was sorry he could not pay back the money at the time , he was grateful my father had never pestered him for it .
At that time my father was old and in his eighties , he had just begged me to never put him in a nursing home ( he had always lived with me from even before i was married) ..... that money helped fulfil his dream by enabling us to afford a full time nurse for him until he died.
My mother came and tried to claim the money a hers , when she heard about it ..... but she did not get any ..... when my mother died her antiques went to auction ,about $ 50 k was raised , so much more than had she at the time bought new furniture in the fifties which would now be just junk.
My mother died a lonely old sad woman , with material wealth , but little else.
Its all KARMA ....... FROM KARMA , THE BEST LESSONS IN LIFE CAN BE LEARNT.... I believe in it . Saskia
