Karmacoma

Karmacoma

This - is an excellent song. Massive attack have devised a true chill out classic here. It gets stuck in my head all too often.

What's your take on karma? I've always been a bit of a superstitious creature... think three drains and along that sort of path... and I have a lot of time for the saying what goes around comes around. In every aspect of life. Even if it is just a massive fad, there's nothing wrong with an extra incentive to do something kind!

So during the summer I was proved just that. Although unfortunately I was at the wrong end of the line. As I was waiting for a bus to Battersea, G1 (never comes), I saw balanced on the red seats a blue envelope. Titled 'Open me'. Now I know what one is thinking right now, this never happens, and writing about it tales of Alice in Wonderland spring to mind.



No I wasn't in an opium haze; and after some serious deliberating and waiting for the ever so slow G1 I decided to open it, expecting a big spider to crawl out. Lone behold it was a little note fastened to a £10 pound note - how wonderful!

Now we all know the saying 'there's no such thing as a free lunch'. On my bus journey I thought about what to do with it. Donate some money to charity, relay the message to another, buy lunch for a homeless guy. The list is endless! Despite £10 not going all that far anymore...

So there it was in my purse for a whole week and a half, until I decided to put it to good use to by myself some healthy food in preparation for my Ibiza body due in 10 days time, so it was spent, with the promise to replace it and do a good deed.

As you can probably guess it's not something at the forefront of your mind, and I couldn't script this, I went to a cash point to get out £10, my card was spat back out, the shoot opened and NO MONEY.

Pretty neat isn't it? The world has that £10 again somewhere.

Maybe you should carry on the London trend and brighten someone's day! I promise myself still that I will be giving £10 to a good cause. I will prove it with a future blog!
