Hi, everyone.

'What goes around comes around'

This has two meanings, right? One is that bad things would happne because you did bad things before. Second is that if you wish to have good things, sometimes good things come about. you need to wait for a while.

Am I right?

Thanks.

It's similar to 'you reap what you sow', meaning that if you do good, then good will return to you, if you do bad, bad will return to you.

Cheers

(hey, are the cherry blossoms blooming there yet?)
