Did anyone notice that the best times of your life, the most satisfying days are when you're the busiest? The best games of golf are the ones earned after months and weekends of hectic no-time-to-blink activity? Or that the happiest people are those who drive themselves endlessly against the clock, filling each day with as much as they can? Maybe that's why college is the best time of one's life. We don't care if its a weekday, weekend, holiday or exam time, we make the most of every single day, every moment, be it in a library or in a dorm room. We understand that every one of those moments is contributing to what we are becoming. We understand that college isn't about finding yourself, but creating yourself. Life is pretty damn similar. The ones who truly live don't go around with a chip on their shoulder, believing life "owes" them for the fantastic amounts they give to people and projects they are involved with. The most self confident people are the ones who have been there and done it, as scared as you or me, but still standing, still doing. The ones who appreciate every weekday rather than begrudge it as their payoff to earn a good weekend.

If that isn't proof of karma, I don't know what is. To work without want or need of reward, surely, is to understand that there are greater forces at work that will ensure that as long as you do what you have to, what you need will come to you. What you need, mind, not what you want, or what you think you deserve.
