"Come in my gold gates or not at all
Take of my fruit for others or forbear
For those who steal or those who climb my wall
Shall find their heart's desire and find despair"

Stolen happiness will not endure. Shortcuts in ethics won't earn you peace. Life lived for yourself only is a life lost.

C.S. Lewis was correct.

It's very much like the golden rule, Do unto others...

Or, what goes around comes around...

Always good things to keep in mind.

Thanks guys. This is more private musing though - I am trying NOT to pray misery for mine enemies - to not fall into the same emptiness they dwell. And trying to remind myself that malicious and unjust action will always be its own punishment. Sounds a bit grand I know, but I don't want to go for tmi...
