"Why do Bad People...."
Jun. 10th, 2013 07:13 amBack before Madonna was 'Like a Virgin', my HPS said something post Rite/post Feast that has stuck in my head since....even though at the time I thought she was being a bit of a cynical old lady. Now that I'm actually older than she was at the time, I see it a bit differently;>....
We were all sitting in the backyard digesting the various Tofu dishes;> and someone brought up the old, "Why do bad things happen to Good people?" saw. She said, "They( the Lady and Lord) expect more of those that Know better". As the decades have passed, the more I've PERSONALLY found this to be true. It doesn't matter that Others may get a "Pass"...I WON'T. I can Understand the Reasoning but admit that there are MANY times I wished that I'd put off Spiritual Stuff for another Incarnation and just been able to "skate" through Life like so many folks I've known. Sure. It "Pays" in the long run but at the time the "Universe" is crapping on you for something small while others get away with pretty much murder(and sometimes THAT), it can get a bit tiring.
Cheers,
Pat
