I need "luck" to reap what I sowed?

This is my follow up to the previous article. Someone called MS has posted me a comment, which is very interesting, and I do agree with him to a great extent. Part of it reads "Karma whether good or bad does not necessarily (so I believe) mean that actions in-kind will be done unto you but rather ANY action in-kind will be done unto you. (Example: you treat your kids bad and you get shot in a robbery or you donate a kidney to someone and you win the lottery)."

This is true. Things do happen. You get back good in one form or the other. And even the bad. I have heard of this concept in my childhood. I have read several mythological books, and have many beliefs, that some may classify as superstitious. Generally, Im very practical. Sometimes, "too practical", as per one of the comments. Anyhow, Coming back to the karma point. You get back stuff, in one form or the other. However, I have come across several people who have actually done good most of the time, and even if they have done bad its small, but are suffering always. On the other hand there is no shortage of these really happy & / or rich & / or satisfied people, who always mock others, and do loads of other bad stuff, but still live their life happily.

When I speak to the very practical people about such situations, without really giving them a background or any karma talk, the very same people tell me, "sab naseeb hai", as in, its all your luck. What about luck then ? Is it only karma ? Or is it luck ? Or is it a balance ? May be a fusion ? I don't think I'll look for the answers. I'd rather focus on writing stuff about women. It keeps my time going by nice and happy, plus no tension. :)

Ah, by the way, someone just told me, what goes around comes around! But in the conversation about men and women. She was wanting to know why I taunt at women so much. I said because they do such stuff. She said, I agree some of them do, but then what goes around comes around. Guys do such stuff too. But its again about why do the guys who are nice to girls get tormentous women, and nice women at times get bad guys too ? According to MS' example, its like the guy was nice to a girl, but may be he got a better job or some other good thing happened to him. Not meaning to mock his statement. Damn. I thought, in this paragraph I won't get into the karma stuff ! Anyway, so, does it mean that, we gotta be good all the time, in everything we do ? So that whatever we get back will be good. But then no one really is perfect ? I guess thats why the whole cycle. Ok I really wanna end this here... :)
