The Petty Route to Revenge: A Path to Joy, or Just More Suffering?

Let's start by examining the concept of revenge. When we talk about revenge, it often seems so cool and satisfying. But is it really?

What is the Prettiest Revenge?

According to me, the prettiest revenge is to let them go. Living by the mantra 'Let them go; do not interfere in their life, and let them not interfere in yours' can be a step towards a healthier and happier life. Focus on yourself, set goals, and work consistently towards your dreams. Building self-control is an essential part of this process.

Gradually, you will see changes in yourself. It takes time, but the healing process begins within you. Letting go is one of the best things you can learn and practice. Invest your time in self-improvement, focus on your body, emotions, and career.

At some point in your life, when they see you, you won't be the same person you were when you left them. You will be a completely different and better person.

Why Focus on Self-Improvement?

Instead of focusing on revenge, focus on your own self. You will see a lot of growth within you. Stay surrounded by the right people. Revenge might give you satisfaction, but it will never provide you with personal growth, better mental health, or a healthy mindset.

A Different Perspective: The Golden Cake

On my brother's birthday, I baked a cake. It had a golden ball that had melted a bit, and there were some cracks. But it was in the fridge from midnight, so those imperfections were okay. The cake was still delicious!

Life is full of imperfections, and it's essential to embrace them. Smile, because happiness is the best medicine. Instead of getting petty with revenge, choose to move forward and improve yourself.

Why Not Take the Petty Route?

Some might suggest petty revenge as a way to regain power. However, getting petty revenge is immature, negative, and toxic. Just walk away, go for total no contact, and practice the scorched earth policy—wipe the person from your life everywhere. If you see them, walk past without showing any emotion.

If that's not enough, get creative and put laxatives in their dinner (just kidding! Don't actually do this).

The Bottom Line

Do not bother with petty revenge. It's a waste of time. Move on, forget about it, and remember that you are only stooping to their level. Karma will take care of the rest.

For the love of God, why would you want to do that? It must be about you being cringe. Instead, choose to be happy and happy people lead a more fulfilling life.

Remember, the path to joy and happiness is within yourself. Focus on yourself and your goals, and the rest will fall into place.
