Blog EntryRevenge is a dish best served coldJan 26, '08 6:27 PM
for everyone
[ Okay.. first things first.. i'm not on a revenge-mission against anyone okay, so don't think it.  ]

I heard this proverb a few nights ago at the screen awards, used as an intro by [i forget the hottie's name.. haha] the guy who played superman [recent] which he then got from the star trek nmovie. and ever since then, this certain quote keeps on going on and off my mind! grr.

okay, so i think.. y not write about it?! so..you see, "revenge" in itself, connotes a negative meaning right? it is a means of getting even to somebody who has done any wrong f*ckin'-freak#n'-h$ll of a thing on u. It is what i love calling as "payback time!"

Revenge is triggered by a misdeed, but how will u know if the deed is a misdeed? hmm.. something is a misdeed when it violated ur dignity.. ur identity.. ur character.. yeah.that may do.. being violated is truly a misdeed, an almost-unforgivable deed that makes you wanna smash ur violator to pieces!

So u've been violated..hurt.. you in turn also wants to get back on someone.u get mad..and in turn violate ur violator's identity too.. You now feel relieved, gratified and very well satisfied. However, doesn't it makes u the violator now?! then as the role of the violator turns on u, that person in turn will (in most cases) want to get back on you too! Damn, one misdeed and one 'revenge' leads on to a viscious cycle of never-ending paybacks' and violations; lives full of hatred and guilt, grudges and anxieties. tsk3x

Now u see, REVENGE is a dish best served cold. Ü It is [sometimes] better to just ignore the misdeed done and let things go on for u and ur violator, be cold about it without having the intention of acquiring payback. Well, karma's just around the corner anyway so why bother collecting payback yourself, right? it's just a waste of time anyway..

hahaha! so whoever the philosopher who quoted this.. Damn. You are so right!

Let's just take things that are happening in our lives right now as it is..
Why spend your time being angry on something or somebody or anybody?! when you can spend the time that u have, on being happy and CRAZY =) Okay, there may be rough times, but.. c'mon! for crying out loud! This is LIFE! - and it's supposed to be like that!

I mean, there are REASONS/purposes for every single thing that's happening/happened in our lives, the only problem is: finding what those freakin' reasons are. But come to think of it.. life's no fun if those reasons can be found right in front of our doorsteps.. so why not have fun searching for those reasons instead? And sometimes, it is right in front of our doorsteps, we just have to look deeper.. maybe its hidden behind the doormat diba?! hehehe and when u do found that reason(s).. isn't so  [much more] gratifying and fulfilling?

Hehehe funny blog. =P And yeah I agree, no need to dwell on things past. It's better to just move on and look to the brighter future. If someone wrongs you, karma and their negativity will get back at them in due time. We all get what's coming to us, so the more positive our outlook, the less likely others will intentionally harm us. Kaya ayun, just let bygones be bygones. ^_^

So yeah that song rings true... don't worry, be happy. Pag galit ka, eh di galit din ang mundo. Haha, ang kulet, dami lyrics and quotes na pwede isaksak ano? =D
