An eye for an eye!!

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

Do you ever think of that, to revenge? Let says, someone had boiled your blood due to certain circumstances, would you like take a step to forget or forgive them, or you choose to payback?

“Payback time!” certainly that’s the most using word when someone has hit their nerve.

Let’s don’t talk about how we take vengeance on someone. Rather, let us take a glimpse for why we want to payback for what a person had done to us. Honestly I can tell there are million of reasons why we want to pay back. Below are the roots of the fighting spirit. Come on, show your colors! ...yes, that’s it………

· Dignity
· Glory
· Feminine or vice versa

Throughout history, a risen and fallen kingdom or dynasty has its own telling story. Likewise, in our daily life we are working at the same pace, we rise and fall all the time. There are moments of pride and humility. Apart from the mistake (inner strength) we had done to cause the fall. There is still another equally strong drives to cause the fall of us, the ‘attack’ from the outer strength.

Have you ever been disappointed by someone? And, you have a great feeling had been let down, in addition to, you feel that someone deserve a payback from you.
There is a story……….

Long time ago, there were 2 good buddies, Peter and Paul. They were friends since they were at the age between 4 -5. When they had grown up, both of them became traders. They traveled around the world for trading purposes in order to earn a living. Unfortunately, things never went well all the time, Peter planned to marry a lady of France whom was the person who Paul fall into as well. When Paul got to know this, he felt so unpleasant with it. Thus, he decided to spoil their relationship by creating rumors to slur Peter’s repute. And, it works. The France lady had left Peter. Peter cried to Paul for her living and swore that he will kill the person who spoiled his life. But, in the end Peter was poisoned by Paul because Peter had known the truth for all these while and stopped Paul continue to trade in their trading route. Hence, Paul choose to sacrifice one’s life due to his future living and the most important thing was he had loosed his ever buddy when his deeds against Peter has been revealed.

Does Peter deserve that payback?

Does Paul deserve the treatment from Peter?

I don’t know. I personally think that Peter is so kind hearted to do so. If I was in Peter’s shoe, Paul will be vanished in my sight. However, in this modern day, ‘vanish’ is no more there, I will just assume that person is a transparent sheet of paper. I can’t see him.

Sometime things are difficult to be forgotten and forgiven. You can forgive but sometimes you cannot forget. This is simply because that incidence had left a mark deeply in your heart. Or, you cannot forget and you cannot forgive as well. But, if you had forgotten which means you had forgiven.

People take days and years or even their whole life to remember what had been done wrong to them by someone. In their pure mind, something needs to be done so that they will feel relief. This is the cycle of life they claimed. An eye for an eye is what they meant.

As in my personal life, I had 2 incidents that basically I had forgiven them but I still cannot forget that moment of their frosty look. Luckily I’m free from all that now.

As a guy, we can effort to loose anything but dignity. Once it has been challenged, anything can be happened. Friends can become rival, brothers can become enemy. That’s an observation! In fact, that might be true.

As a lady, they can loose anything but reputation. Their repute is equally as their lives. Once it has been spoiled or used in vain, I can assure you that they will remember you forever. You may try if you want to.

Sometimes it can be forgotten but still can’t be forgiven; it can be unforgotten and too, it can’t be forgiven. But when it has been forgiven, it is too being forgotten.
