Gods don't give us special treatment because we survive a crisis or had a painful life. Our experiences are our life lessons and not a reason to be treated special or have special privileges granted.   Many of us  get into self pity mode when things don't work and blame the universe for bad luck. But the fact is stuff happens and luck has little to do with it at times.   Sure you might have the type of luck where trains run you over or a flying toilet seat from an airplane hits you on the head. But do you really think the universe has nothing better to do then plot revenge on your narcissistic butt?   And if the universe has it in for you.  Ask yourself what did YOU do to obtain such wicked karma? Do you act like some entitle brat that thinks the world owes you? Do feel self righteous about your pretend good intentions. And think the world owes you a big thank you? Do you constantly envy the blessings of others and feel it should be you? Cause guess what? The universe does not cater to brats who make demands If you want the universe to listen. Be humble and genuine. The more we demand and plead to the universe based on the believe we "deserve" special treatment the less results we obtain. The key has a lot to do with balance and harmony. When we become demanding we are not operating from a place of balance but rather from a place of desperation. Which often means our ego is directing our efforts and what we demand is often coming from a spoil brat position rather then real deficiency in our life Next time you make demands to the universe and it doesn't happen your way. Ask yourself am I beng a king baby who wants what they want or simply a fragile soul who wants to be rescued from truly bad luck?
