I often wonder when exactly Karma's going to give me a break and just let me be...every time I think I can take a breath or smile a little too much, she hits me with some fucked up version of a happily ever after - where nothing is exactly happily ever after. It's like I have to walk around all the time wearing a karma-proof vest and never take it off (I have no idea what I've ever done to piss her off so much truth be told), even when there doesn't seem to be something even remotely suspicious about life - just in case she decides to go agro on me (again).
I've found though, that the best way to deal with it is prayer. I know, I sound holier-than-thou, but I'm not and it's true. It really is the only thing that gets me through each day - that and the knowledge that before I go to sleep, I would have heard Ordinary Guy's voice, at least once. I've found, that it's sort of like meditation; your mind goes quiet and the world seems to just let you be for those few minutes. And you kind of don't feel so alone any more - as corny as it sounds, it really does feel as if God's sitting across and listening to you. And really, nothing seems too tough to handle when it feels like the Highest Being ever imaginable is by your side. It's like, "Yeah, bring it on karma!" <insert invincible meditative feeling here>.
Speaking of Ordinary Guy, he performed the most awesome magic card trick for me today! Quite frankly, I'm still reeling. It was actually thoughtful, and mind-blowing, and rather amazing.
And speaking of amazing - hello USA general elections! The American public has made me quite proud of them for effectively utilising their brain cells again. President Obama's acceptance speech was, true to form, moving: he really is a brilliant orator. I've never been a fan of the US of A (you all know that), but he really does inspire me, and inspire in me a hope that The World has potential to make better on itself - not much of a star spangled fan, but definitely forever after a President Barrack Obama fan.
And speaking of Presidents, I read an article recently regarding our very own - which you should all read as well I think, so hit the link Loyal Pinus Followers ---> "Leave the Chief Alone". Also, I hear that parties in parliament are to file a motion of no confidence against him. Hear, Hear! I say. It's a start!
Oh. And one more thing:

Dear Karma,
Despite your best efforts, I'm happy. I know you're going to fuck around with me terribly much in the months to come, but here's the deal: I can see the silver lining; the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow; the last freaking purple unicorn alive (and all that). So honestly, I'm happy and I'm going to stay happy despite your best efforts. You know why? No, I don't have an Ace up my sleeve; what I do have, however, is a Jack of Hearts. Plus, I'm one tough cookie (just ask Eid day's sheep).
