In life, people work hard and put in a lot of effort. But sometimes, despite all that effort, they don’t win. Some get frustrated, fall into depression, and even give up on life. The truth is, many times our hard-earned efforts don’t bring immediate results. But if we have patience, life can surprise us—just like a lottery, where a small event can bring big success. That’s one of life’s beautiful surprises. Similarly, I think in your case, there have been times when you’ve put in simple effort—or even no effort at all—and still won many times through luck.
All those wins are still counted, but in a way, they are part of life’s karma. If you’ve had victories without much struggle, what about the people who have worked hard? Life balances itself out. At some point, because you’ve won easily in the past, you might face the opposite—putting in great effort but still losing due to a very small, casual mistake. That’s one of life’s mysteries.
The realization here is this: even if you put in effort, sometimes you will fail. And even if you win without effort, eventually you will lose. The positive truth is that if you keep putting in the effort, even after repeated failures, success will come again. That’s the rhythm of life—and that’s what makes it worth living.
Another lesson here is that if you win by luck, life may eventually balance it out — there will come a time when, despite your hard work, you may not win. In the same way, if your efforts don’t bring success at one point, there will come a time when you win purely by luck. This is the realization — it’s all about the Almighty balancing the scales of Karma.
