Karma happens

I had two experiences recently ... little miracles for sure ... that reinforced my belief in that old adage - what goes around comes around.

I was shopping for toilet paper and a few other equally exciting items at Target. After I checked out, I noticed two candy bars wedged at the very back of my shopping cart. They had gone unnoticed by me and the cashier, and I was just walking out the door. I looked around for one of the ever present greeters or anyone in the Target red shirt. No one. And it was after work, and I was so hungry, and it was Hershey's with almonds. groan My mind did a little internal whine and coax. This took all of 20 seconds, I guess. I took the candy bars back to the cashier. 

The next morning on my usual walk before work, I found a $20 bill on the ground.   I  am  not  kidding.

A couple days after that, I had an appointment to give blood. Instead of my usual place, I had to find a different donor center close to my new job. It took some effort to figure it out, but donating blood had become a worthwhile routine for me. I figured if I am lucky enough to be able to give blood, I am glad to do it. Because it may be my turn one of these days to be needing someone else's blood. 

But that night, I was in a hurry to get home because I wanted to shop online for Buddy's birthday present. As I left this new blood center, my eye caught sight of a store called Game Stop. A very short time later I was walking out with a purchase that proved, according to Jesse later that night, to be a sure fire hit! ha! I swear this was an even better reward than the twenty. 

Some would argue that these two incidents were merely coincidence, not a case for Karma at all. So tell me ... have you ever had an experience that felt like Karma? Or do you even believe that ... Karma happens.
