Safe Harbour On Both Sides

No Revenge If you think calmly, you’ll realise that such an act, which ultimately turns against you, is not wisdom— it’s foolishness. The fights in our society and the flood of court cases are all results of this spirit of revenge. When someone suffers a complaint or harm, they cannot forget it. They immediately react and retaliate. This leads to more fighting, more lawsuits. And in the end, both sides suffer. The one taking revenge also harms themselves. Every person wants a peaceful life. Every society longs for harmony. This can only be achieved when people develop a non-revengeful mindset. That is the only way to personal peace and social harmony. Whenever you take revenge, you spend your energy. Time, money, and peace are all used up—only for some momentary psychological relief. Nothing more. But if the same energy is invested in something constructive, the return is real—just like in the story above. Spending energy on revenge is a loss. Using that energy in something positive is a gain. In such a case, it’s not hard to decide what a wise person should choose.
