Do you take credit for situations when life is smooth? Do you blame God or other people when life hits a rough patch? Do you believe you create your destiny or consider it pre-destined? We make our destiny good or bad according to the quality of karma, response or reaction we render to what is happening to us, and it's our choice. Let's create the right thoughts, words and actions. Good karma settles past karmic accounts and creates a pleasant experience now, and a rich destiny for the future. Let's not focus on what people and situations do to us, let's focus on our karmas.
