Don’t deny it. One of the tropes we love to read about or watch in movies is the revenge trope. It’s when an innocent person is unjustly treated and said person gets their revenge by killing off all enemies and emerging victorious by the end of the credits.
Sadly, we’re not all martial artists and we can’t KO all the people who have been unjust towards us. We also cannot live our life thinking of giving an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. If you really think about it, that would be extremely tiring and draining.
Ultimately, the Universe consoles us that the great equalizer exists – Karma. Just believe and the powers that be will make sure that everybody gets what’s coming to them. Read our “what goes around comes around” quotes for affirmation.
