\u201cYou reap what you sow.\u201d \u2014 <\/span><\/i>This happens to be one of my favorite quotes to date. If you don\u2019t believe in karma, then you may not believe in the consequences of your actions, but I do. I think all past actions come back fourfold, no matter how much later in life it is. The quote reminds me of the stereotypical plotline in movies or shows where the bully ends up needing help from the said person they bullied. Galatians 6:7-8 says, <\/span>\u201cDo not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit reap eternal life.\u201d <\/span><\/i>Now, I have not read the entire bible, nor do I go to church every Sunday, but I live by these words. My whole childhood, I wished those words on people who did me wrong, and grew angry and confused when nothing happened to them. Wait guys, I was just an angry child, not psychotic. As I got older, I realized that everything comes in time, and karma has a way of coming back to you.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n I swear I don\u2019t mean to sound like a Disney villain when I say that, I just love philosophy. In most stories you read, an unfortunate event will befall the antagonist that serves as a reckoning of their actions. A good example would be one of my personal favorite movies, <\/span>\u201cMean Girls.\u201d <\/span><\/i>At the end, Regina suffered the results of spreading nasty rumors by getting hit by a bus and receiving a spinal injury, alongside losing her friends and having her popularity questioned. And see, I\u2019ve had my own experiences with the proverb. The only instances I particularly remember that I can share publicly is when I used to have sticky fingers as a child. Later on, a lot of my own things would go missing and I never found them again. That was my karma\u2014losing my own things since I had stolen.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n My reasoning for sharing that is so you don\u2019t think these words are just that\u2014words. Words come from truths, and reaping what you sow is a truth set in stone. You can change all you want, become a better person, but what deeds you have done still lie with you. You cannot make someone\u2019s life a living nightmare, and then get to live out your life happily forever. Repercussions, people. The point is, do unto others as you would have them do unto you, or you\u2019ll reap what you sow. Don\u2019t make up rumors about people, or talk behind their backs, or bully someone for being different. Because, in the end, those said actions will come back to haunt you.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0 \u201cYou reap what you sow.\u201d \u2014 This happens to be one of my favorite quotes to date.
