I always wonder when people go on about "karma" (when they really mean revenge) and does it ever occur to them that the bad thing that happened to them is
their karma for something in
their past?
Same as the manifesting logic. If you don't get it, did you not deserve it, or manifest it hard enough? Or if you get the amazing thing and put it down to manifesting and then it turns out to be awful or a mistake, is that also a result of something you manifested? was the universe sending you a message.
Or does it only apply to positive things?
