I haven't seen this thread before. I admit i've not read all the posts here, but wanted to share my thoughts on this.

I've thought about this concept before. There are so many, many ways to wrong someone that has wronged "you". Revenge is easy. I can think of a million ways. I knew a girl once that had 1000 tons of rocks delivered to her ex's yard after she caught him cheating. She of course had his credit card.

I've worked along side some winners who i could have easily got into trouble with their jobs. Or friends or exes, loads of people can try and be jerks, and it is relatively easy to get revenge on people. All you have to do is put your mind to it. But, seeking revenge and waiting for it are two very different ways of living. I USUALLY choose the latter, living with peace in my heart, knowing that i didn't deserve the type of treatment i was given and knowing i took the high road and didn't cause anyone any pain even if they deserved it. But, pain came anyway.

I've learned over the years, if someone is an ass they usually get what's coming to them in the long run. I've seen it soooooooo many times, over and over. I honestly cannot think of one person who has wronged me that hasn't ended up getting "wronged" by at least one other person, or a situation, or gotten fired, or lost friends and became somewhat isolated.

Call it karma or whatever you want. But, i've learned to just wait. Watch. Then, when karma or life or their bad choices happen, smile to myself silently and walk away, and secretly give myself a high five.

Revenge would be easy. Really easy. A piece of cake really. But, waiting, watching....that is what makes me strong and then...very happy at the end result. Every. Single. Time.
