If
a farmer desires to reap a harvest of wheat , he sows wheat ; if he wants rice
, he sows rice . what should we think of him if planted wheat and expected to
harvest rice ; or the other way round ? The law of nature tells us that we must
sow what we wish to reap . if we sow nothing , we shall reap nothing .
So
it is with life . We have always to bear the consequences of our actions . If
we perform good deeds , we shall be rewarded with good . If we perform bad
deeds , we shall never enjoy peace of mind . Our lives will be wretched and
miserable . We cannot achieve fair ends by using foul means . Even if we do ,
it will be short – lived .
Man
can decide his own future by his present deeds . If he sows the seeds of vice ,
corruption and sin , he reaps the harvest of misery and ruin . If he plants
virtue , purity and goodness , he plucks the golden fruit of success and
happiness . If we want to achieve good , we should do good , for as we sow ,
shall we reap .
