Is being good goodie?


One basic question: Is it always like that if someone is good than life should only throw candies and be fair? Answer is just the opposite. Life seems more unfair to those who play fairly or such question pop in the head of those only!

How many times we have come across good people in misery asking lord that why such bad things happen to them only, what is their fault, they have never done anything bad. Always the good girl chooses the bad boy, if we see through little filmy lens!

What we do is think in a very linear manner. If we do good to others, in return good will happens. So simple! Is it so simple? No, Life is a complex ball of game. It has so many parameters which decide various dimensions of life. Even cycle of karma is not that simple. Most of the times you get results of your deeds not in this life. (If at all you believe in karma cycle)

 Sometimes, it happens like who is involved in all the wrong deeds is seen to be getting all the gifts of life. And, then it pinches the most. First thought that come in mind is to fall for such easy benefit reaping deeds. That is the easy part I guess. Hardest part comes when you have to be patient and strong enough to stick to good even if it’s giving no good. Bad things are more lucrative and easy to fall into.

But some things in life should not be just done because those are easy to do, rather it’s a matter of choice on how you want to lead life at your own terms and good will reap good fruits one day, when that one day will come, nobody knows.

As Charles Darwin said, its the survival of the fittest - not the goodest, the wisest, the strongest, the bravest or anything like that. The problem with good people is that they expect good things to automatically happen, while the bad people work for those goodies. If you are a good person and still want to work as hard, its going to be better than the bad people get.

Who said that if you are going good with someone,he will return back in good...even than it is his choice to return the favor or not...You can not force anything out of someone....but yes that gives us peace and a sense of good pride that we did good at least.You need to identify what is the purpose ...is it doing good or is it to get good ...If you want both need to work for both...And Need to overcome grey areas as well with the sheer attacking strategies on both....

Nothing much to say..
I believe virtue is it's own reward..

Being able to differentiate between the right karma and wrong karma and the path to follow the right one is what is expected of us... going all the teachings of Bhagvad Gita
