Melchizedek
" Just remember that some of us take on more bad karma in one lifetime than others. If you suffer a larger than normal amount of bad karma, it does not mean you were unusually bad in a previous life. It means you were willing to burn off more in this life. People who suffer too much in this life should be commended (for being courageous to take on more bad karma), rather than being condemned.
If I can say so with humility, that sounds like a description of me. I have had an extremely stressful life, largely because I refused to compromise my intellectual integrity in my search for truth.
Although I have to prop myself up with various medications, I feel extremely positive about my life at present, and look forward to perhaps some of the best years of my life still ahead of me.
Thank you for the encouraging comment.
