Topics: Revenge, Letting go

Sometimes, we just have to let go of certain things if we are to make progress. Letting go shows our maturity level and in the true sense of it, it mostly turns out to be the right call.

It's no surprise that most people think revenge is the perfect payback when they are hurt by others. But actually it isn't, cos in my best opinion, revenge begets violence and violence begets destruction. So why revenge...?

We don't need to have the mindset of paying people back in their own coin or making them regret what they did to us by doing the same to them, simply because we felt the pain then we do the same to them to let them know how it feels.

We have to learn the core value of forgetting when people do us bad, it simply entails we leaving them to the creator, because he knows what's just and what isn't.

In 2020, there was an Eye for an Eye Pay per view matchup between the beast slayer Seth Rollins who famously called himself "The Monday Night Messiah" and Rey Mysterio, where mysterio wanted revenge for the damage the former caused on his eye.

In this particular encounter, Mysterio could have spared himself some more pain as the evil Rollins tactfully injured another eye of his to leave Rey profusely bleeding and left him in danger of losing his other sight simply because he couldn't let go.

A little story to tell.

There was a certain moonlight story, that I was told by my grandmother and which I feel like sharing with you guys.

There was a certain King who ruled over one of the biggest towns in the olden days and was so influential that whatever decision he makes on anything was final, he could do and undo.

There was a certain day, he was riding on his horse in a bid to check on the farewell of the villagers and see for himself the necessary things he ought to do.

As he was going, many of the villagers met him on the way and bowed down their heads as a show of respect, but there was one particular man that passed by him and even though he saw the king, he didn't bother greeting. This infuriated the king and he asked his servants who the man was and he was told the prince of the neighboring village.

Now, there was a strong enmity between the two villages that dated back to the time of their fore fathers.

When the king got home he was very livid, as he never thought there was someone in the whole earth, that could have snubbed him.

Then he contacted the CSO of his kingdom to go fetch the prince of the neighboring land and to cut the long story short, he had his head beheaded for being disrespectful towards a crown king.

After two months, the king had long forgotten what he did but the other king of the neighboring town was disturbed cos the missing prince was the only heir to the throne.

Via reliable source, the King of the other Kingdom later learnt that it was the influential king that had his son murdered and because of this he sent a message of war to the king.

During the war, a lot of people lost their lives, many were turned homeless, children turned orphans and to round it all up, both kings lost their lives in a fierce rivalry battle....

Lesson derived

  • The principal lesson here is for us not to have the mindset of revenge.

  • Secondly, we shouldn't be disrespectful to people whom we know are elders.

  • We should always learn to let go sometimes of whatever people do to us.

Yup letting go and not giving a damm is the best choice for a human , As we kill the bacteria there only but if we not then we keep on thinking about it and stress over it . Also revenge is never a good option nor was . Just chill , when the time comes the person will be automatically punished . Also you do know that WWE is an act ! though I respect them as they do drastic things to entertain us .

My dear friend, you told a very interesting story. I agree with you. I think revenge is the work of weak people. Strong people forgive, and pay more attention to the person who hurt them, and trying to embarrass him instead of taking revenge.

I remembered clearly about this match between Seth and Rey at first Seth has no intention to remove rey's eyes but his character makes me do so.

You're right. Rey's attitude made that happen to him, had it been he let go, he would have spared himself the troubles

I really don't appreciate the tactics of eye for an eye, but we are all human, its add to let go when someone hurt your pride, it would take the strong minded to let go, but there are some situation you can't. Some people wil say, leave it for God, probably they haven't been hurt deeply, though, I'm not in support for revenge, but sometimes it can be so hard on people

Wow, thanks for sharing this, truly; letting go is the best option one can ever pick. Most wars and fights were attained from either not saying sorry or a bid to get revenge. Though it's sometimes hard but it's for the betterment of the parties involved.
