I’m writing this on my 83rd birthday. My life has changed since my 2019 cancer diagnosis. In a nutshell, cancer appears in my body, the doctors zap it, I’m good to go, another spot pops up and we do it again.
Each time it reappears, it’s a reminder I’m one step closer to judgment day. Without cancer, the same would be true. Just because something is inevitable, does not mean it is imminent; yet, for some it is more imminent than others. No point in complaining, time waits for no one, so I’ve learned to enjoy the ride as best I can.
A side effect of my treatment is fatigue; naps are my friend. While there are many clever sayings about not to fret about the past, I daydream a lot, reflecting back on my life. Would I like to have some do-overs? Sure, but there is no guarantee correcting a past mistake would have made things different; learn from them and move on.
In the middle of a daydream, my wife Jo sent along a cool video, “The Twelve Laws of Karma”.
The first time I heard the word karma, I thought someone mispronounced the syrup I like to pour over a big bowl of ice cream.
What is Karma?
WebMD explains:
“Karma is a concept with a few definitions, specifically in Hinduism and Buddhism….
Hinduism identifies karma as the relationship between a person’s mental or physical action and the consequences following that action. It also signifies the consequences of all the actions of a person in their current and previous lives and the chain of cause and effect in morality.

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
