Bad Carma? What Happened at Costco was the Last Straw
Navigating Life’s Challenges with Grace, Empathy, and Beauty
In the whirlwind of daily life, unexpected challenges can test our patience and resilience. When the world feels like it’s spiraling out of control, a series of unfortunate events can seem like an inescapable cycle of bad karma.
However, there is a way to navigate these challenges with grace, empathy, and beauty to build resilience, even in turbulent times.
A Series of Unfortunate Events:
My mom commutes to work for nearly an hour every day. She almost always parks in the public parking garage near her office.
One day, she walked outside to see the side of her car crunched in a hit-and-run. She filed a report, and the garage security released the footage.
A man (in a stolen vehicle) was driving erratically nearby. He plowed through the entrance of the garage, spun around, bumped her car (it was one of the only ones in the garage at the time), then got out, surveyed the damage, sped to the other end of the garage, and slammed into her car again, before driving off, nearly running over a group of people picnicking on the grass nearby.
