It is my Perception , and thus reality as I see it. that I controle the vast majority of my life. Weather or not science can predict it, is not relevent to my Perception of it. Even if it's an illusion, I believe that my actions/inactions determine how my day/life will go. And so, MY PERCEPTION of Karma is that, when I act in such a way as to make myself happy (doing good as I see it) I am determining how I will feel, and what I will do. I don't see Karma as making a "deal" (good for good/bad for bad). I see it as making a plan. (I will act/decide in this way so I will be happier) I make this plan knowing how I felt about previous decisions. Not in the hope that I will be happy, nor the hope that good will come back to me, nor that the plan made for me, will go well.
