What Goes Around...Comes Around ;)
What goes around comes around... you will reap what you sow... Maybe you heard this sentence in the famous Justin Timberlake song (I'll forever be a 90S kids hahaha). This means that you simply can't escape the consequences of your actions or words.It is very similar to te concept of "Karma".
Is there any similar sentence in your language ? In French, we have a similar sentence that is: "On récolte ce que l'on sème".
Do you believe in this statement ?

I hope you're not under the impression that Justin Timberlake invented this idiom. It's been around for decades.
