The Perversity of the Universe Principle
We know that our minds gravitate conditions to us in the external world, that match what is going on in our heads. In this way one could view the experiences of life we go through, as being symbolic of our inner journey. When we need to learn a certain lesson, circumstances will arrange themselves in such a way, that we will be forced to deal with it. From these things, we always emerge stronger, although the process won't always be that much fun...

So understanding this, we have a great Key for Use. When something difficult comes up, you can ask yourself what the lesson involved in it happens to be. Once you figure that out, the problem will simply evaporate, as soon as you apply that principle.

Instant karmas gonna get you,
Gonna knock you right on the head.

Pretty soon youre gonna be dead.

Laughing in the face of love?

Instant karmas gonna get you,

Everyone you meet.
Why in the world are we here?
Surely not to live in pain and fear.
Why on earth are you there?
When youre evrywhere, come and get your share.
Well, we all shine on,
Like the moon and the stars and the sun.
Yeah, we all shine on,
Come on and on and on, on, on.
Yeah, yeah, all right,

Yeah, we all shine on,
On and on and on, on and on.
Well, we all shine on,
Like the moon and the stars and the sun.
Well, we all shine on,
Like the moon and the stars and the sun.
Well, we all shine on,
Like the moon and the stars and the sun.
Yeah, we all shine on,
Like the moon and the stars and the sun.
Well, we all shine on.

3. Yes
that is very true. And those things that you truly desire will come your way, and in a more wonderful way than you could ever imagine.

4. Well, thank you! ;)
Such quick responses :)

~makes note to spend more time here~

There is also a political application to this. I'm sure you've all noticed that this planet is in considerable trouble right now. It is a collective lesson, we all need to learn. We created governments to serve our needs, but governments have decided that we exist to serve their needs. The sooner people all around the planet get that idea, the sooner we will be able to make the changes in structure to bring things back to what they really ought to be...
