Misuse of the word 'karma'.

Even though I am Christian and don't believe in reincarnation, karma it self means cause and effect - it's the equivalent of 'you reap what you sow'.

When someone does something sh*tty and something bad happens to them, this isn't really 'karma' per se - karma is the fact that they done it in the first place.

So for example your partner cheats on you, you find out and break up, and then she goes and lives a seemingly happy and lavish life on instagram and you wonder why she didn't get her 'karma'.

The fact that they're so hard hearted that they cheated on someone they're meant to love openly IS their karma or the cause and effects from all the stupid sh*t they've done throughout their life.

Hurting someone close to you is a horrible thing to do and anyone who does so regularly isn't having a good time on Earth anyway - someone who cheats and doesn't feel guilt no longer even has a soul in my opinion and their experience of life is worse than non existence.
