BLIND REVENGE

TODAY'S QUOTE:
An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind. - Gandhi

The urge to return fire is strong in even the most non-violent among us, especially if they have done nothing to deserve being shot at in the first place. Slap someone and by instinct alone their dominate arm is likely to rise. They may overcome the impulse, but never imagine that it does not exist. A primal portion of their nature may urge them on, but standing in one place bitch-slapping each other will not gain any ground on either side.

You may possess more physical strength... more intelligence... more possessions... none of that ennobles anyone. If you become a big man from standing on the little guy, your smallness is only highlighted. Trust me, meanness of spirit is impossible to hide. When you cannot function without violence toward other humans that marks you as twisted, broken, and desperate to deposit your own damage on anyone handy.

Some battles cannot be won. Some wars are simply not worthy of our bullets. Fighting against a bully never gains a victory; better to leave them battling their own demons, than going hand-to-hand as if the fight was fairly matched. Walking away can be the bravest thing you can do. Fighting fire-with-fire is not an intelligent action when they have a flame thrower and you have a match.

The Lord claimed vengeance as His business. Judgment is His as well. Karma is a window we can gaze through to view the reap what is sown nature of life. If we are wise we do not stand over-long waiting to see its fulfillment. Be too busy rising above to worry about what is happening down below. An eye for an eye is not your employment... your job is to tend to the health of your own soul. Becoming a master at that will automatically de-tooth  the devils that hunger to devour you to feed their own selfish needs. Own your soul or someone else will always be trying to claim it as the spoils of a war you never wanted to fight. Think about it... let it ride... then decide!!!
