What goes around comes around

An idiom designed to communicate an nearly universal idea about the Law of Reciprocity. Some people believe it expresses ideas about Karma. To me, it signifies a circular process. Sometimes it's a good thing to interrupt circular processes or circular thinking processes.

Reciprocity, which is completely different (to me) than circular thinking, only works when people are willing to reciprocate any given x y or z type of way.

For what it's worth, I don't personally like Karmic thinking or circular process of thought because more often than naught, it's a pejorative process. I'd much rather be straight up honest in unvarnished ways.

it's the number one reason why shades (sunglasses ) are so important. I have light sensitivity.

This happened to me a couple of times.... the last romantic person in my life did this to me.....I broke up with them because of this fact, and two other facts, which ... you know about, already.

But yeah, some "ride", right?
