WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND

"Life happens" when people ask such questions as "why did this happen to me?", "why am I a victim?" "why me?". Most times the answer to such questions is that "life happened". Even though most of these people cannot be totally blammed for what happened to them, life has its own way of "evening" out things. And I believe such is the only fitting for its inhabitants.
We live in a world where people hate people, where races hate races and neighbours detest neighbours, most certainly for selfish reasons. And evil is continually done against one another on daily basis. And because am a big fan of this saying that "what goes around comes around", I think life pays back these "evils" in many unthinkable ways, quite awesome.
Lets leave hate alone. "He" is selfish and self-centered. He wants us to destructively envy one another. He makes us racists and wretched. He, as a matter of fact, makes us victims of that which goes around and then abandons us when we fall into the pit of karma, the pit that swallows all unnecessary evil and backbites.
We are humans, and we need each other to survive. Let's not give karma a chance to make us worthless. Even the holy books forbids hate, especially that for a fellow human despite our grieviance and differences with the person.
Let me tell you a very short story.
Mike was Jill's next door neighbour in their school hostel. Mike was very brainy and always had the best results in their class, however, he barely has enough to eat. Jill on the other hand has everything a student could wish for but always had poor grades. As a result, he detested Mike just for no particular reason. Mike often get so hungry, and because he doesn't find it easy to provide for himself, he would, out of hunger, beg Jill for food. Jill will do exactly what the biblical rich man did to Lazarus, very disheartening.

But something happened. Both of them graduated and Mike was immediately employed (haven graduated with a good grade) but Jill wasn't able to secure a job. Years passed and Jill moved to the height of his career becoming the manager. Jill on the other hand was still searching for a satisfactory job. You might ask for the reason why Mike didn't help out, but the answer is that Jill knew Mike was wealthy but didnt try to ask for help from him as his pride wouldn't let him. Jill had to settle for less, the "less" that life offered him, too bad.
Hate, pride and jealousy kills. They take us very far away from good things that might reach us. I believe love and love alone can rejuvenate us and make us anew. We are here for all of us, so let's live for all of us.
