Straight Arrow

Life tought me that if you do something good then you get it in return whithout asking for the return.
What about you?
Do you think there will always be a return?

Sort out how galloper?

I mean, to some extent there's the law of averages. If you're a bank robber, chances are you'll eventually be caught. If you give flowers to sick people, chances are you'll eventually be recognized and rewarded for that.

But as FS says, in the whole cosmic sky daddy thing, good people get Cancer and bad people win the lottery. That too is a fact.

my mom is an eg:- I have never seen her being bad to anyone in my life... not bad...even rude to anyone... she been helping the whole world...even if she dont eat she feed the needy...she is kind with all the living and non living things...never said NO to anyone...

and GOD was not fair to her... she became a widow at the age of 36 and lost her only son when he was young...is this what she deserve in return for 60 yrs of doing good?? I dunno when? she almost stopped believing in GOD now...

From my past experience; all the friends i helped never returned my favour.

But suprisingly, ppl that i thought who are not my friends ended up helping me.

So i guess you can say do good and it will return!

it goes like this

"Do good no matter to who"

@ Olive: indeed life is unpredictable but we can sort out a few situations...don't you think so??

@ FS: I have seen that too, but believe me at some point they will get what they deserve

@Mrs Timebandit: you are right!

@SS: has happened to me too...I do good and I get equally paid back!!

Have a great day!!

No matter what life brings us lets us be good always. that way we get a sound sleep at night, gain friends and be rewarded if not today or tomorrow maybe one day. sometimes we already enjoyed the reward before we know it. Most often good people are the one's being put to the test that's why things happen to them but you see if you really are good then there will be no mountain so high, or ocean so deep for you. You will always pass those test.

i get paid-back in equal measure...in simple things though.like i do show some manners on the roads....like not fighting for parking spots or stopping the car for somebody to cross or letting somebody move into the track from a parking lot on the side of the road,etc.fortunately,i find others doing the same to me too.makes me happy and makes me want to be all the more nicer to people :-)

I believe in 'What goes around, comes around'. If you do bad things, and make other people suffer, you will get your comeuppance one day.

Sorry Khalid.. I know people who done ONLY good thigs in life and helped others...GOD was cruel to them... they got things which they dont deserve...

and many bad people get all good things which they dont deserve..

Nope. Life is unpredictable, that's why bad things happen to good people and good things to bad people.
