I've been told by "readers" that I have had to overcome a lot of negative karma from past lifetimes.

I have dealt with more crap than most average people.... many abusive relationships, many abusive bosses, crisis after crisis, and multiple setbacks in life.... it's been one challenge after another after another for MANY MANY YEARS.

I was also told that at this point in my life, I have overcome my negative karma because of the good things I am doing in the world.

I am most disturbed by the fact that our soul in this lifetime can be impacted by the actions of your soul in a totally separate lifetime... and that you have to pay for their sins and mistakes and climb upwards from wherever you are on the karmic ladder.

I am really upset that my life has been designed because of negative karma, if I choose to believe these readers. And I do choose to believe in the laws of karma.

Do people here believe in Karma? Good and bad? And why?
