I stopped setting Fire to the Rain, a long ago... *There was a time when I couldn't sit still until I got the revenge. When something goes wrong, it used to make me feel like I should set fire and burn everything to ashes. There's no need to say, how it also burned me.* It took me a long while to understand, there's no joy in this. I was falling apart, I was compromising with my peace. When I look back now, it feels like it was a different person; not me! Isn't it a great thing? > Finding peace in life was the greatest achievement in my life so far. I was wrong the whole time. There's no shame to approve that I was choosing the wrong path for very long. This materialistic world made me so blind, I couldn't see where I was going. When I took off my blindfold, I open my eyes and my life fall behind. There's no regret on this... After all of my struggle, I learned spirituality, found the true meaning of life.

And you know what, when you build yourself these ways; you will feel so strong, no one can harm you anymore. There will be no fear, nothing. Not about your career, not about your financial well-being; nothing.* **There's a saying you may have heard of, "when you find your true self, you find everything, you don't need anything else in life."** The joy of finding peace, feeling the calm inside us is better than everything else. And that's why, stop setting fire to the rain... *Believe me, you will lose everything this way. Maybe you will be the winner, you will achieve everything you wanted. But at the end of the day, you will feel empty by heart.* After all, Fire can only burn... Let the world be. Let everything go, the conflict inside you, the hate in your heart! Forgive. And only forgiving can make you pure!

I am glad for you, my dear friend, that you noticed a deviation in your path, you tried to go the right way. Nothing is more important to us than peace, and that peace comes from ignoring bad people and their misbehavior. Bad people themselves will see the result of their actions because of their wrongdoings.
That's what my inspiration is. It's hard to not take revenge but it's way better to move on. Thanks for your wonderful words.
It is very good that you have found that spiritual peace that we seek so much. It means that you managed to overcome your fears, reaching an emotional balance that allowed you to rise from the ashes.
Well, not 100% but yes, I'm almost there. It's a freedom to get over hate, have the ability to forgive, and move on. Thanks for your beautiful words.
