    i think so, what you reap is what you will sow,, is an old saying, and i think its fair,,,, if you project out good things,,,,, you should get good things back to you, the same with bad,,, its all the karma of it,,,the "pay it forward" also falls into this category,,,,,,, for example, my daughter was at a self checkout, when the person in front of her left their change,, about $15,,,, she let them know and gave it to them,,,,then when she checked out (buying Christmas decorations for her boyfriend in the service overseas),,,, she was short about $10,,,, the couple behind her gave it to her,, as she was trying to decide what to put back,,,

    "Turnabout is fairplay" is just a fancy way of saying "revenge". Never a good idea unless your willing to be victim of their notched up turnabout.
