That old saying of an eye for an eye
Is seeking revenge or retributions really the only way you’ll be happy
Is taking down the person a means of accomplishment
Will calling the person every hatred name in the book make you happy
Is it a sense of pride and joy
Releasing all negativity around me.
My happiness and well being means more than tolerating negative energy. I refuse to subccumb to any of it.
No life or energy is to be wasted on such things. As Ghandi said it just makes the world go blind. Why bother seeking revenge or hatred. It just consumes you and takes away your happiness.
🌿Thank you for reading.

Not sure who said it but this: ““ A man who desires revenge should dig two graves.” pretty much sums up revenge, you were right to retain your peace and walk away. Inspiring post :O)

Pam, so true! I don’t believe in revnge either. After all as you pointed out it creates a continued cycle of violence and negativity. Wise words!❤️

Thank you Jenna. I couldn’t agree with you more. That’s why instead of acting upon it, I just wrote it down. To some an eye for an eye is a form of happiness and satisfaction.
