: can someone let
me know what it means
The literal meaning is about gravity: throw most objects
in the air, and they will fall to the ground. But it has been applied to virtually
everything else, too: the stock market, the price of (you-name-it), someone's
rise to power, etc. Common sense leads us to expect that no trend continues forever.
The mighty will fall. The proud will be humbled. In time, the feather in the wind
will come to earth.
