Someone once told me that when you die every deed you ever committed, whether on behalf of good or bad is represented in the form of pebbles. Black ones for every deed done in the name of evil, white ones for every act of good. The pebbles are weighed upon a great scale, and if the white stones outweigh the black then your soul is granted peace.” He opens one bleary eye. “What’s the punishment for too many black acts?”“ There is no worse punishment than standing on the threshold of heaven alone. .

About This Quote

The world is a reflection of what we do. There are good deeds, bad deeds, both are represented in the form of pebbles. What is important is not how many black ones or white ones you have, but the balance between the two. If you have done good deeds in your life and you have done bad deeds too, how will your soul be judged? If you have done evil deeds but have also done good deeds, will your soul be granted peace?
