JIHAD: #AToZChallenge

It seems the whole world is bent 

on getting even for something, 

doesn't it?

“The only people 

who you should get even with 

are those who have helped you.”
― John Southard 

"The best revenge is to live well." 

- Oscar Wilde

 Where is the survival benefit 

in feeling the need to get even?

 Life isn't a game, 

and simply getting even 

doesn't mean

 you've won the battle;

 it just means 

you've lost your self-respect.

 "For every minute you are angry 

you lose sixty seconds of happiness.”  

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Brooding over an injustice 

only makes the event,

which took minutes,

possess weeks 

or years 

of 

our lives.

Let it go. 

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN

THE URGE TO GET EVEN

POSSESSES YOU?
