I'm sure you've heard this before. Or, is it, What comes around goes around?
Anyway, folks usually spout this when something bad has happened to
someone...or others, normally perpetrated by one person or a small
group. The implication is that the person(s) will have the same thing
happen to them....or something similar.
I'm
not sure where this came from, this saying. I guess to some extent it
offers a little solace when we are harmed or done wrong; however,
obviously, there's no basis to think it's true. I guess you would have
to believe in some kind of mystical powers or what-have-you, that are
looking down on the world and punishing all bad deeds. Hmmm. If that were the case, why did the mystical power or whatever allow the bad deed to happen in the first place?
In
order to think like this you would have to feel that there is some kind
of overall score keeper, who makes sure that wrongs are righted.
Hey,
the only way wrongs are righted is through action....not through some
mystical belief that there is someone or some power who is looking out
for us.
Sorry
to be the bearer of bad news folks...but, it just ain't true. No one is
looking out for us and there is no overall balancing and adjusting. What
happens happens and, that's about it. The scales of justice are only
level and balanced as they are passing though the arc from one extreme
to the other.
Is this a worthwhile pursuit for a fellow in his golden years? Shouldn't I be spending my time on something a little more...well, meaningful or something? Hey, how many more years do I have and how much of that time do I want to spend here, on this blog, about sauce and stuff? March 17, 2013, well, yes, I'm still buying different brands and types of sauce, though it seems as though the sauces are playing at best a minor part on this blog. Oh, well, what can I say...
