Something I found no time for, have you?

A Time for Revenge?
 
Revenge is so sweet saith who?
Certainly not me, was it YOU?
For I can’t believe it would be,
It would make me sad & uneasy.
 
I believe when someone has hurt you.
They eventually pay, I think this is true .
I don’t believe any reprisal is up to us.
In time,
They’ll get payback just have some trust.
 
So sit back and consider only good thoughts.
On what lovely sweet joys this life has brought.
Taking time for revenge is never as sweet.
AS a life without it, for now, that’s a real treat.
 
Written by,
Bonnie May

such prophetic wisdom in your observation -- though I will admit at times it is difficult to be intelligent enough to make that good and rightful decision in the heat of battle -- peace and love to you Bonnie -- JMW

The best savour about revenge is not much to arriving to the point payback, but the feeling that we have the currency and we can do it, anytime.
Closing the circle with revenge will leave us empty.

Right you are--revenge is definitely NOT sweet, and longing for revenge makes one bitter. Who wants to be around someone filled with bitterness? Not I.

Love ya, Bonnie.

Revenge is a waste of time. Time usually takes care of those
who hurt you. I can still see my mother sitting at the TV watching
one of her soaps and saying, "Just you wait, you hussy, you'll get
yours in the end." And when the show was ending, I'd hear Mother
say, "See! I told you, didn't I?" -gene.

Forgivness is light. Revenge is just becoming blind in the heart. Well done, Bonnie, a wisdom of high value

Hi Bonnie:

You must be a mind reader. You must have read my mind.

Lots of love to you, my angel friend,

Bonnie,

This is something to really think about. You did an excellent job of making those who want revenge on another think twice. Revenge only leads to more revenge. Does it ever stop?

Mary
