I Can’t Believe I Forgot To Put This On The Dumbass List

February 5, 2011 By Jenny Ryan 4 Comments

I’d forgotten all about this, because it happened over five years ago. But once I remembered I knew that I had to share it here with all of you. Because we really haven’t had a good “dumbass incident” in a while.

So one of the (many!) symptoms of this stoopid fibro is a very weird, unbalanced internal temperature regulator. So I have massive, horrible hot flashes like other people have to inhale.

So I was at a retreat once for artists/writers/creatives/artsy entreprenuers etc., and during one of the workshops I had a pretty intense hot flash.

I happened to mention it to the woman who was seated next to me, hoping for a little sympathy, and she looked at me, thought about it for a minute, and then said,

“Well, you’re probably burning up karmic debt from your past lives.”

    Oh, she had to say that so she could build up her karmic debt for her future lives.

    But you left out, “and then I punched her…” 🙂

    @Beth-LMAO!

    @Casey-unfortunately, this was a few years before I uncovered and embrace the power of the cranky.

    This just proves that it’s not you; it’s them.
