I've pondered this topic alot lately. I heard alot of people talk about different people they think deserved to die because of what they have done. They think that their revenge was justice, but has anyone ever stopped to think that perhaps their revenge leads to a never ending cycle of revenge? Theres a saying that says "Bloodshed gives way to more bloodshed, hatred breeds more hatred until all of the violence soaks into the land craving rivers of blood, and no matter how many times it happens people never learn" In this fact history seems to always repeat itself with wars, race, bad leaders etc. I think people need to learn revenge is useless because u can lose yourself in it and its inevitable that more bad things will happen. Sometimes life isn't always fair thats just how it is.
I've been wronged many times in my life, by parents, friends, past boyfriends etc. I remember wanting to take revenge on them myself. I've realised how stupid it as to waste my time on it cause i knew nothing would change, i knew if i were to have my revenge id be empty nothing would change, they wouldn't change, life would go on and things and people would move on.
A show called "Hell Girl" had me thinking about this topic alot. Basically if u have any kind of grievance caused by someone u can call upon hell girl to enact the revenge u cannot achieve yourself. By doing so Hell Girl will take the person u wish revenge on and take them to hell, although by requesting this your soul must also belong to hell but after u die. Then u r given a doll with a scarlet tread tied around its neck. U have the choice to or not to pull it to enact your revenge. As silly as it sounds this had me thinking if someone did something so horrible to me would i seek out revenge like this if it existed? Would I risk my soul into total damnation and torment? Honestly I think thats too high a price to pay to get revenge on someone, and on a side note your both gonna be in hell for eternity how stupid is that? What would u do? Would u do this just for the sake of revenge?
I guess my point to all this is life is too short to worry bout getting back at people for things they've done. Life goes on, people grow. People should realise that no matter what revenge breeds more revenge which can turn into violence which can lead to bloodshed. If only the world as a whole could realise their mistakes and in turn work to change them, but that is a dream in which sounds unrealistic and unattainable.
btw sorry it took soo long for me to post anything lately, ill work harder to post blogs more often :D I do believe the next blog will be all about my wonderful charming boyfriend Shaun <3 I love him so much ^__^
