We all get hurts in one way or the other, we offend each other either knowingly or unknowingly. We've all been in a situations where someone's action left us feeling broken inside. Sometimes thr pain runs so deep that our heart become heavy and whispers the thought of revenge. You imagine being in a situation that hurt so deep to the extend of you don't even care what will happen, you just want to take revenge, because at that moment, you'll think the best thing that can give you rest of mind is taking revenge. Sometimes you'll be in a situation asking yourself " what if i do back what they did to me?" But then again, life isn't always that simple
I remember a time like that , when someone i trusted so much hurt me so badly. Sincerely, i couldn't hold myself when it happened back then, what was my mind is anger, and how i'm going to take revenge. I was seriously interested in taking revenge because i wanted them to feel the same sting they gave me. I wanted them to realize what they did, i wanted them to regret of doing me bad. So because of that , the thought of revenge kept in my head, i started planning on how to take revenge on my best friend. It was almost like temporary relief waiting to happen. That was exactly how i felt that day.
But then, i paused, Asked myself what next after revenge? Is revenge the next solution? Would it change what as happened in the past, would it make me feel better or just turn me into same person that hurt me. It wasn't easy to make the decision then on what to do. At that moment, i decided not to go down path, instead i work away and let life handle it. I decided to let God handle it for me and be the judge of the matter for me.
After that moment then looking back now , i feel peace knowing that i didn't act on the anger. Sometimes revenge might look sweet, making you thinking that the only solution to situation is to take revenge, we have forgotten that we're human, there is no way we will not fuck up, either knowingly or unknowingly. We have forgotten that, even we can't be perfect all the time, and mistakes are born to happen. We have forgotten that, we also offended God Almighty, and no how , no how, we pleaded for God forgiveness when we do what is not right and no matter what we might have done, God will surely forgive us. So if God can forgive and let go of things we do then we shouldn't take things hard and find it hard to forgive too.
So i ask you now, have you every be in that kind of situation before? Did you go through with the revenge or did let it slide
