Something has been playing through my mind. have you ever heard something from someone that sounded wise. But then you go away and dissect it and realise that it was unadulterated crap?
I recently tried out a new laser therapist as they were advertising a discount and I am an unashamed discount whore. She was Russian and I could barely understand a word that she was saying. I could not wait to get out of there as you kind of don't want to be treated like another piece of meet on the production line when you have your pants down so to speak. She almost made up for it afterwards when she told me next time around to come without make-up and she would show me this wonderful new machine and what it could do for my skin and started giving me make-up tips.
But then I queried the use of the laser around my eyes as I have been told by my usual therapist (thank goodness that she always takes me back!) that there is a nerve by your eyebrow so you don't want to be messing around in that area with a laser.
The Russian tells me that you should not always listen to all the naysayers. She basically makes no sense to me whatsoever here. Then she says that the reason for crime is that we all open our mouths and talk about it and that it would simply disappear if we stopped spreading it with our mouths.
She says when you see something sad or shocking- you just need to think to yourself that is that person's karma not mine (oh dear- just realised that I am discussing karma two blogs in a row- forgive me). You just need to say Thank you God that that is not me and move right along. Don't go home and spread the negative vibe by telling your husband all about the terrible car crash that you have just seen.
Apparently a wise woman once told her that her purpose in life was to spread a good vibe. Not to have children or anything stupid like that.
At first I thought that sounds fabulous. But the data processors start hacking into it. OK- great- so evil shit like child molestation will stop if we simply stop talking about it. Bull shit. I'm sure the paedo's would love that. Turn a blind eye.
Can you imagine how wonderfully preserving it would be of your own emotional capital if you could just think to yourself every time you see something awful, well sorry for you- your karma babe- suck it up princess. Where does this put humanitarian aid? Heroes who fight to better the lives of many. What kind of hardened, calloused beings does it turn us into? A bit like one of the religions I can think of where everyone just seems to accept their lot in life on the basis that it is their earned karma. Bullshit. And what karma do we earn for ourselves in our next life (whether that be human, insect, animal or immortal?)- if we do shut our eyes, our mouths, our hearts?
