Is revenge the only way to overcome the sense of betrayal?
I wonder at times, if betrayal and revenge are all real emotions? At a time when we are fighting pandemic, and when all hands SHOULD be on the deck, here we are- looking and re-looking at our friends and enemies.
The so-called wise people are slowly showing cracks. The so-called people with strong views slowly realize that their views may not have always been right.
The so-called kind and compassionate people have faltered with intent (Gates- and that's another post). Despite my knowing that nothing is in my control, I cant but wonder at the cruelty of the human race.
We are not conscious of our actions. Each of our actions will have a repercussion that most of the times we dont realize. And that's where communication helps.
It is sometimes good to pause to realize our mistakes in life. And if we do realize them, then atleast we may never repeat.
Someone said spontaneous? Well- that's not an excuse for bad behavior. Ever.
Even a spontaneous moment- if gone wrong, no matter what the reason is- should be backed with an unconditional apology that comes because someone means it.
The feeling of betrayal and my own anger will one day eat me up alive. You can rationalize many things but we can neither reconcile nor understand it completely.
