The story you're about to read is a very old tail that has been told from generation to generation, I won't be surprised if you haven't heard of this tail before, nowadays, parent doesn't tell their kids the tails of the old, tails they are meant to know so they would be able to live in this world with the right mindset, and the reason is that their parent never told them, some might think it is not necessary because the world is changing, well the world might change but we human don't change. I bring you good tidings once again.

How vengeance and karma came into existence.

Story story, once upon a time.

There live a king in a faraway kingdom, the name of this king is King Gozie, this king has two strong and handsome son named Victor and Micheal, these two son love their father so much but never got to see eye to eye because they hate themselves, all the effort of their father to bring together was put to vain, he did all he could but nothing seems to work out between this two boys.

One day, the king invited a wizard to his kingdom to help him find what's wrong with the two boys, after the wizard did some magic spells, it was revealed to him that the two boys possess the same power and the only way the king can understand those power is through the King's death and such death must not come naturally. King Gozie was shocked after the wizard left, the king thought about it, what kind of power does his children possess that can only be unlocked through his death, he thought for days but couldn't come up with a solution. He then thought to himself, it was better for the power to remain locked away than for him to die.

On his 60th birthday, he called friends from all over the kingdom, both far and near to celebrate with him, after he had given his speech, his sons come up to the throne and stood beside him, immediately he took a sip from his wine, he felt down from the throne and died. It was a big shock to the son and the people that gathered at the king's court, everyone was dismissed immediately, and it was later discovered that the king was poisoned.

The two sons become so angry and sown to pay back the evil that was done to their father, that night, for the first time, the two sons came together to make a plan on how to avenge their father, Victor suggested they execute all the maiden that serve the king on his birthday, but Micheal insist a proper investigation was done before doing that so they won't kill the innocent ones too, at the heat of their argument, Victor brought out a knife and stab Micheal in the neck, after he realized what he had done, he ran outside and went ahead to kill all the maiden and male servant that had to serve the king.

Victor executed vengeance for the king but forgot what he had done to his brother, Michael also swears with his dying breath vengeance on victor his brother but it won't be immediate.

The End

Vengeance and Karma

Victor who represents vengeance took the law into his hand without the proper investigation, many of us are like that, when someone is done to us or against us, the spirit of vengeance will take hold of our heart, and when this happens, we don't think straight, we begin to have negative thinking which can lead to many wrong things. We should let go of vengeance.

Karma is said to go around and come around. Everyone will get what they deserve at the end of the day, no one will go unpunished.

To me vengeance and karma are similar, one is done immediately either by oneself or by another person with the concert of the one who needs the vengeance, while karma is when the wicked get their reward without the concert of who the wickedness was done to, but let me tell you this when karma gets hold of a person that does you wrong without you making any move, and it makes you happy, it is vengeance too, know this and know peace.

Have a happy new week.

Karma will bring vengeance on you too. Be careful with your words and actions and the consequences. Be sure to ready to face whatever results of your deeds are.

Victor act was totally bad, he wanted to revenge, but got his bro injured first. Many people in this world are just like him. But you see that aspect of Karma, i don't think that really works anymore in our today's world, because many people did bad, and they went free with it without been rewarded the consequences of what they had done.

To me Sha, I think Karma is long dead and buried, what's remaining only remaining is vengeance which is often done by people and not nature. What made me say karma is dead? If the guilt person dies without getting the pay of what he did while on earth, it's almost impossible for the children to inherit or face such case in the future. Unless...we are diverting to the church sermon stage.

With happenings around, if karma is still alive, then it's a weakling. While can't it strike at a spot.

Guy! I'm thinking farπŸ˜΄πŸ€”

Yeah you're think far, and I understand you, Let's take the lekki toll gate for example, if the people can't get vengeance, then karma should take place right but nothing has been done, yet we see the political and other people like the military roaming about without getting any punish for their evil did. Some times vengeance might justify once action but its never the right way because vengeance begat vengeance that begat death. Even if you do evil without your kins knowing, and some one too vengeance to their hands, if your kins find out who hurt you without knowing what you did, then they would want to have revenge too

Yeah, I get it. Vengeance is never recommendable anytime. During the time of endSarz, it pained me because I knew that nothing will be done to those in power... Even Karma no fit smell them🧐

Wow! Such interesting story. What I picked from this is that, one should allow karma take it's place, it's better not to take the law into ones hands and just allow karma take its course.
