The truth is, sometimes good things happen to bad people, and crappy things happen to good people, and there doesn\u2019t seem to be rhyme or reason behind it. What I have learned is that there is no <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2010\/05\/the-universe-is-always-communicating.html\/\">\u201cbribing of the universe.\u201d<\/a><\/strong> I can be the best and kindest person and crap will still happen, people still die and some people remain <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2010\/02\/5-ways-to-spot-a-jerk.html\">selfish, inconsiderate, weak-minded, miserable, hateful and whiny jerks<\/a><\/strong>. It\u2019s the nature of life.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The only thing we can do is focus on the things we truly have control over. Being a \u201cgood\u201d person overall still attracts more good things than bad, and if you take a look at \u201cbad\u201d people, you\u2019ll notice that their lives really don\u2019t tend to be all that happy. Getting away with stuff has yet to produce true happiness and merely creates an illusion. Most jerks I know are anything but happy. They may have stuff, the title, the money, but if you take a closer look, it\u2019s all superficial crap and those who they call \u201cfriends\u201d couldn\u2019t care less about them, because they&#8217;re just as shallow or screwed up as they are. Birds of a feather flock together, and tools attract other tools. So in the end, they aren&#8217;t really getting away with anything. And for those who keep getting hurt by tools, well, they\u2019ll need to ask themselves why they&#8217;re staying around, instead of getting rid of them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are attracting and creating a particular dynamic that reflects something we need to learn, grow, and evolve as a person.&#8221; \u2013 <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.californiapsychics.com\/newcustomer\/v5\/completecheckout\/?extid=5214&amp;nostep=true\">Giovanna ext. 5214<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We all have choices and maybe your perceived punishment is for the lack of decision or action you are taking. If someone keeps hurting you and treats you badly, it is on you if you are the one who keeps on sticking around for more.<\/p>\n<p>I really do believe that being <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2011\/03\/cultivating-compassion-living-in-grace.html\">kind, compassionate and caring<\/a><\/strong> attracts other such individuals. Maybe learn how to set your own boundaries and you may find that there are fewer \u201cbad\u201d people in your life, which translates into less drama, less pain and less anger over the perceived injustice. In the end, I feel we all do get what we deserve.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Remember, nothing changes until we change our approach.&#8221; \u2013\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.californiapsychics.com\/newcustomer\/v5\/completecheckout\/?extid=9146&amp;nostep=true\">Maryanne ext. 9146<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-size: 12px\"><strong><a title=\"$1 per minute \" href=\"http:\/\/www.californiapsychics.com\/c\/c.aspx?lid=113977&amp;utm_source=NC_offer_footer&amp;utm_medium=NC_offer_footer&amp;utm_campaign=new_customer_text_offer_blog_v5step1\">Exclusive offer: New customers can speak to a psychic for ONLY\u00a0$1 per minute.
