Karma’s Gonna Getcha
I think of karma is embodied learning. This means it is alive. In our bodies. Beyond all the ways we love to believe we can control what’s happening with our thoughty thoughts. The way our soul is unmistakably beckoning us to better, expansion, transformation, A MIRACLE.
Karmic looping, which psychology calls repetition compulsion or trauma reenactment, is what’s up when we resist how bad the pile of shit stinks. We leave it there. We hide it. We insist we didn’t create that pile, they (insert any they) did it.
There’s no wrong here. There’s no wrong in finding yourself in the same wretched situation for the umpteenth time. Every time you find yourself there it’s a beautiful choice point. Are you going to put your pile in shit in your pocket and carry it around? Or, are you ready to be the person for the job? Because the job’s calling. You’ve been hired.
