There is a process of seed-sowing which leads to a harvest according to the kind of seed sown.
Thoughts, words, and acts are seeds sown, and, by the inviolable law of things, they produce after their kind.

I put it to you, should you have forgotten that the laws haven't changed. Honesty still remains the best policy.
I hope you can view that mirror in the future and say boldly "I have lived a good life, served a good example and fulfilled the purpose of my existence".
