Just been reading some of the posts and I'm have trouble seeing see how karma is involved. I may be reading the post wrong but they seem more directed to material circumstances rather than the spiritual. I always understood Karma to be the opportunity for us to develop our identity in a divine sense not to solve day to day material misunderstandings.

I don't quite follow what you mean by 'material circumstances'. You mean to specify situations/instances where karma may occur? The examples here are not material i.e. physical but involve reactions to relating to others.
I thought that's what happened.
That's exactly the same way I feel. People do drone on sometimes or take super large gaps which was the reason I spoke in this case. I tend to be a fast talker.
Once again though - it hurt my feelings as the person really snapped at me and I found the energy quite nasty. Then when I spoke I could feel them staring at me with quite a nasty stare as if I knew they didn't like me. I could feel the energy.
I then made my tone of voice more sharp and stared them back which I noticed scared them slightly. Matching them on their own level lol
And, therefore escalating the whole situation. Your dismissal as droning of those who speak more slowly is pretty agressive, don't you think? I dislike being interrupted. Why do you think what you are saying is more important than what another was saying?
Thanks guys for your posts. This has really cleared a lot of things up for me.
I know people that have let things go though. People have done things or said not very nice things to them and they just leave it.
Don't mean to gush Amy but your viewpoints have really, really helped me - more than you may undestand 😀
I think there is a great deal more you could learn about this - whether you believe in karma or not. Tit for tat is not good for our society or for our souls.

I agree with you scommstech. Last few posts are more on materialistic issues than spiritual and have very little to do with karma.
Wow after reading that I'm glad I've done what I've done then even if I have upset some people.
I find it hard to do things face to face which I've noticed is the same with other people too. It's easier for me to write things down. The only options in retaliation are verbal and saying something to the person or physical like hitting the person back.
And maybe failing that it's possible to send them energy telepathically haha not sure ...
Are you sure there's no other way out? Someone stared at you so you stared back to intimidate, or someone belittled you so then you belittled him back somehow. Aren't you just stooping to their level? Blind hatred or detesting will only end up making you same as what you hated the most. 'I' dont like this, 'I' hate this, 'I' can't tolerate this! This 'I', 'ME' or 'MYSELF' has a lot to do with karma as well as buddhism and hinduism.

If that person was complete stranger, then you can just smile and move on. That way other person might realise their mistake. If it is someone you know from a while, then isn't it better to understand why they are angry? Isn't it better to talk it out than doing the same thing as other person and worsen your relationship.
