This is a theory that we find many people using to explain the unexpected in life. People tend to seek answers as to why things happen. One explanation is that if people live good lives they will have good karma or blessings bestowed on them and will be reward for their good deeds and hard work. When bad things do occur, people tend to seek answers and often they will blame the victim for the bad luck that has come upon them. People will do this for two main reasons:
1. They want to believe that the world is fundamentally fair and just. In turn this will deflect their anxieties that bad things can just be random.
2. People also want to believe that the world is just and fair as it helps them to feel less vulnerable.
The world may not be predictable and definitely it is not always just.
