I do believe in this quote. I always wondered why but thinking in the future is better than thinking of your bad past. Some people who were bad is now one of the richest man in the world. Our president Obama, used to be poor but now he is the president. I think these quote could be true. Do you believe in the quote?

I prefer the term good and bad karma.. If they done something good, in return theres a 3times good karma happen to them.. just like what u said about Obama..But if theyre rich because of theyre bad deed, like illegal stuffs, in the end they will suffer 3 times of bad karma.. :P

I like the idea of karma, too. I don't know whether or not it exists, but I like to believe that it does. I do not necessarily think that doing something good will cancel out a bad thing that you have done, but it is a step in the right direction and it definitely will not hurt the situation.

I agree.. In different places, there is always a different way of saying it. I also think good things wont last forever and at the end, they will suffer. I had bad days so I hope tommorow will be good.

I do not necessarily believe that if something bad happens then something good will also happen. I do, however, believe that you can take something bad that happened and turn it into something positive. Perhaps that is what you were talking about? I think that if you learn a lesson or can help yourself or somebody else with the knowledge that you have gained from a negative experience, then it will become a positive situation. Sometimes it takes something bad happening for people to appreciate all the good things that they have in their lives that they might otherwise take for granted.

I agree. You can learn from your mistakes and make it positive. The positive part could be you will never make the same mistake. I learn from mistake everyday because I am still learning. There is always a lesson to be learned because our brain is always learning.
