'it will come back to you'
June 17, 2015 at 4:25 pm
The idea of karma isn't exclusive to Buddhism apparently

I was watching a movie with this chick
There were a couple of scenes showing violence and gore. She insisted on skipping them and the way she looked at me made me ask why....she looked like she really really didn't want to watch them no matter what

So she responds with 'I don't like them....and I don't want it to come back to me in any way'

I realized she sounded just like my mother....with this paranoid fear that thinking about something causes it to happen

There's some leftover magical thinking in my head and I noticed that I actually believe it to be true....that makes me fucking furious.

It ultimately boils down to wish thinking, the idea that thoughts have an effect on reality. I KNOW it's fucking ridiculous, but I can't BELIEVE it is. Yet another thing I was coerced into believing, and now I'm having a hard time getting it out of my brain.

This will sound weird, but can somebody please tear that shit apart for me? I'll pay you in cookies hugs and monopoly money
