just depends....

no, not worthing your time. not a single breath.

I too, strongly believe in whatever goes, comes around. thriving by silence is the best revenge, this way you won't feed germlins.

To me, it depends on the situation.

However I know revenge wont solve anything but to me if I want revenge, then Im not there to solve it. I'm there to stop it.

Agreed.

But sometimes people are pushed over the edge that they'll do something they'd normally not.

I think it depends. The world doesn't work in black and white...

If you seek revenge, it doesn't stop anything. It continues it. I seek revenge against you for something you have done, then you seek revenge against me because I took revenge against you, which justifies me taking revenge for your having taken revenge against my revenge, and on and on. Complete insanity!

The desire for revenge is normal, acting on it is a different thing altogether.

Exactly - it would make yourself a bitter if you cannot move on and still angry...

Exactly, that´s why I don´t support death penalty. Accept forgive and move on is best solution than keep boil anger inside you and destory your good self-estreem. I know it´s not just death penalty but anything...

You know, of course revenge can be sweet but it is also bittersweet. To make a revenge is like asking to put yourself on the line only because you are stooping down to a level where you shouldn't be at to begin with.

To forgive is the best option. Forgiveness is also a dicey issue. For one, it might be easy to forgive and to forget but for others, they can forgive but they won't forget. Everything is usually in a grey area meaning, it is in the middle and there is nothing that can make everything right.

Sometimes forgiving but not forgetting is the wise thing to do. When we forgive, we free ourselves from something that does us more harm that the person we are not forgiving. But sometimes, remembering is what protects us from putting ourselves in a vulnerable position ever again. Remebering prevents re-victimization. Like tho old saying goes, "Do it to me once, shame on you. Do it to me twice, shame on me!"

That's right. When you don't forgive and forget, it becomes an obsession and feeds your hate until it gets to a point where you become a different person. When that happens, you're becoming the person you hate.
