Revenge

[Ken Cheng]

If somebody hurt you badly enough, would you want it?

[Lucre]

no not really. its already bad enough to be hurt, and to suffer again by carrying out vengeance... =\ won't do it no matter what.

[xJadedx]

I don't see the point of revenge, so no.

If it makes me happy, sure, why not?

yes, i'm an advocate of the 'an eye for an eye' philosophy.

That is indeed a great philosophy.

One time I was asked if I wanted to put away for life the maid who terrorized and poisoned me. It would cost only a couple of hundred dollars to make sure she was terrorized in prison for the rest of her adult life. I told the MoM to donate the money towards building an outer pavilion for a rural temple instead.

I kind of regret it now...but in that moment, I couldn't bear to do it. I would encourage others to do what makes them happy though, whether it's revenge or forgiveness.

But you did the right thing... and it was at a moment when you should be feeling most angry.

...I'm not sure it's because I'm morally bound...maybe, what I'm more likely to believe is that I have seriously delayed reactions.

Don't worry about that... I have seriously delayed reactions too. Though just be sure you did a good thing.

I would want it. That is not to say I really approve of revenge in real life (because I don't) but in my heart of hearts, I totally would want it.

You made this thread right after the post in the filial thread? : )

For me, I don't think I would. You can look at it as if I'm being a passive person, but I find it more troublesome. Of course, it depends on situation because if it's something really cruel then I do want justice. But for most part, I would try to leave it to karma.

If someone "hurt" me so badly by telling me I can't get a girlfriend when I was a super mature 13 years old, I'd have my revenge by calling her fat. That'll show 'em b!tches.

good thing you do. i can count on it and bully you meanwhile. by the time you realised, im usually not within reach.

I don't have enough motivation to even start planning a vengeance. Many times, one bear a grouch because one don't have enough sleep...... I think.

In a fit of anger, I swear that I must include "power to teach X a painful lesson" in my wishlist to Santa. At a clearer state of mind, I would feel thankful of certain people who had hurt me because I grow wiser after that incident...... or with some, I just learn how I should deal with them in future since they have revealed to me their true colours/ how critical they can be.
