We all know that revenge is the action of hurting or harming someone in return for an injury or wrong suffered at their hands. It is difficult not to be overwhelmed with feelings of hate and revenge when someone has done you wrong.
It is very easy to say that there is nothing wrong with being wrong!! Why revenge is sweet? The feeling of revenge after someone has betrayed or hurts you beyond an insane person’s comprehension is damn sweet. I’ve felt the feeling of sweet revenge when I watched the movies ‘’Law Abiding Citizen’’ and ‘’Spit on Your Grave’’. But then what after revenge?
To forgive, in truth, is to let someone off the hook for doing something that hurts you in some way or another. Not giving them the time and effort.
To justify the unwillingness to forgive one could say that, by being the bigger person it means you are turning the other cheek. How many times does one need to turn the cheek when you only have two cheeks? How many times should a person get away with hurting a person?
Well, if you believe in karma like I do, then a person will get what they deserve anyway. Or if you don’t believe in that, then think of it this way, if you do something back, then that guy can always turn around and say, "Yeah, well s/he did this to me too!"
So by not getting revenge, you look like the better person, which will drive the person even crazier. Besides that, revenge is wrong because the person isn't even worth your time, and who wants to go through all that trouble of revenge for someone you hate?
So what is the point of revenge? Because no matter what you do it doesn’t and will never change what they’ve done to you. You cannot make someone see things the way you see them. If you drop a brick on your ex-husband's Ferrari, all he will see is his baby broken into bits and he will feel sorry for himself. He will not necessarily understand and apologise for the pain and suffering he put you through.
