How to turn your luck?
I've always felt that in life I have periods of good luck and periods of bad luck. I don't feel like I'm overly superstitious but I do believe in good karma bad karma to a point. I try to live my life by treating others well and doing good where I can.
What brought this up today was a talk I had with my daughter (13 yr old). She ordered some art markers Black Friday. They were back ordered and after a couple weeks she emailed them asking if they knew when they would ship. Great company (arteza) refunded her money and said they would still ship them. I had her email them and tell them free wasn't necessary that we appreciate their offer but would pay. They insisted no charge. She got the markers this past Monday. Today she got another box of markers. The must've double shipped. I asked her what she felt we should do with them. It was a test. She thought we should give them to someone or donate them to the art dept. I explained the first thing we should do is contact arteza and see about shipping them back and depending on their response we'd go from there. This is also where my karma speech came in.
Afterwards I get to thinking about our last 2 years here. We've had some miserable luck the last 2 years. Definitely not as bad as we could've had but just not a ton of good luck. My son fractured 2 vertebrae in his back wrestling, youngest son has had a couple small health stuff, wife had hip surgery, son totaled his first car, had to replace roof on house, new furnace/ac couple months later, ECT ECT. Like I say....nothing to spend much time complaining about but I really hope our luck swings this year. Is there any things you guys do that you feel brings you good karma?
