“To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction”
— Isaac Newton
Simplified Meaning:
When you do something, there is always a response that balances out what you did. Think of it like a see-saw: if one side goes down, the other side goes up by the same amount. This idea is not just about physical things, but also about how people react to what we do. For example, if you are kind to someone, they are likely to be kind back to you. On the other hand, if you are rude, they'll probably respond rudely as well. In life, understanding this can help us see that our actions have consequences and that we should act thoughtfully, since what we do can come back to us in equal measure.
