In meditation tonight, this old Bible verse came to my mind:
I interpret it as meaning all things ultimately are good. Even events that appear or are interpreted as bad - are opportunities for us to overcome them. All problems are opportunities. From the Eastern paths, karma is simply action. Every action has a reaction. Every situation we have, are paths to greatness. Each person is more then their body. Their life essence is a eternal thing born again and again. It's not about a simple life and death and eternity after. It's always eternal. The lessons we need to go through are repeated again and again. If we overcome the problem, it doesn't need to be repeated.
All things then, are to our benefit. It may not seem like it, but keep in mind that what we experience in this life is as a dream to our true self.
Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
