Finish this sentence: "Bad things happen to people because....."

You can answer as briefly or as thoroughly as you wish.
 

sometimes it's just our turn.

The important thing is how we prepare ourselves and how we deal with what comes our way.
 

life presents the living with a complete spectrum of events in the experiential realm, running the gamut from those perceived as good to those perceived as bad. The longer one lives, the greater the odds that one will live through both good and bad experiences in one's life.
 
looking back, the "bad" things I've experienced were due largely to my failing to consider what could go wrong. Over the years, I've learned to consider "Murphy's Law" whenever I do something...especially for the first time. Anytime I'm planning on doing something at all risky, I try to pause, beforehand, and consider how I might screw it up, and potentially cause some damage or hurt myself.

There are two things I try to pay particular attention to....chainsawing and driving. A chainsaw is one of the most dangerous tools a person can use, so I always approach that with a great deal of caution. Driving is also very dangerous if a person isn't paying full attention. I subconsciously consider every other car and driver near me as a hazard...especially when driving on 2 lane country roads. I consider what I might do if an oncoming car veers into my lane...etc. I assume that every car I meet is being driven my someone who is playing on their cell phone, and not paying attention. I don't know how many times, in recent years, I've had to dodge someone who is drifting over the yellow line.

Basically, I constantly think of what might go wrong, and what I need to do in case it happens....so far, that has worked out well.
 
For the most part I believe that good and bad things happen to both good and bad people simply because that's just the way life is but I also firmly believe that bad things happen more to some people because of their knowingly negative and hurtful actions in the past.

Call it what you want.....payback, you reap what you sew, karma or what goes around comes around.
 
bad stuff happens due to what u manage to give out each day -
but bad stuff is in our make up'''''
 
Bad for one, good for another......

If one gets an abscessed tooth...bad for them pain....good for the dentist....$$

​There is always one person at a funeral that is not grieving .....that would be the undertaker .
