Karma is not punishment, it’s not revenge, it’s not justice. Karma is the universe giving you opportunities to alter your vibration. Do with that what you will.

Is karma waiting for Your Ex to die?

If you’re waiting for karma to dish out punishment to people who have done wrong, you’re going to be waiting a long time. If you’re waiting for your lying, cheating ex to die and come back as a sea slug, don’t hold your breath. Karma does not work that way despite people hoping and wishing it did.
