No don't do that because they will have a very good idea who has give them grief and they may come looking for you. Let god deal with them He will do 50 times more than you. Trust me on this one. My mum abused me as a child, She died a Very slow and painful death (throat cancer) Did this happen by chance I don't think so.

I will be honest that it does cross my mind. Who wouldn't want a chance to fight back right. I guess it depends on how much grief he/she caused, if it was intentional, and if the person continuously causing me grief. It does cross my mind to get revenge or see him/her fall just so he/she will stop having the power to cause me grief.
I can only say one thing if the one who has continuously caused me grief deliberately falls and happens to need my help. I will have a difficult time extending my hand to help. Because of anything else the though that once he/she has gained strength, or footing he/she might start again.

Not really. Grief is something we make within ourselves, though as a consequence of some situation, resultant to somebody's conscious action etc. But basically, it is more to do with a mis-match of our own expectation, desire, etc ....
There could be scope for some action, if the situation suggests. But revenge is typically a "re-action", resultant from a negative emotion. It would not help in anyway, except to trigger a 'vicious circle' which could eventually snowball into that 'karma' theory of endless chain 'reactions' !

The best revenge is to do nothing. Live your life as if those people dont exist. Dont give them the satisfaction that they have caused you any grief. Dont get burned up by hate,
"Smile at your enemies - nothing annoys them quite as much"
It will infuriate them more thinking that they have not upset you in anyway and that you have moved on. By thinking of revenge you are constantly thinking of that person who has done you harm. Dont give them that time - you deserve better!

My revenge would be to simply delete them from my life. By not acknowledging them again. Getting even may be fine, but I am not so sure it gets rid of the pain and anger associated with what they did. But I don't think I would feel good at all if anything nasty happened to them.And I would not play a part in making it happening. Anger and revenge are one thing-but destroying or hurting someone I don't think I would want any part of.

Yes, I think alot of people feel that way but won't admit it. I think they personally feel a "Yeah!" when something bad happens to that person. Like karma. And wanting revenge certainly is a whole lot different than actually attempting revenge. It is simply just a feeling of hurt at being a victim of injustice.

Naturally I want revenge. If someone does ill by me I want to see them get their comeuppance.
But the fact it is natural for me to want revenge doesn't mean I am entitled to it, or that revenge would do me any good.
I'd like to see people suffer the due consequences of their actions. I don't want more than that to happen, say if someone spat at me for being a decent liberal person, I would not call it jusitice if they got run over.

If the cause of the grief I received was deliberate or from having an uncaring attitude, then I would welcome any sort of revenge, although It's highly unlikely I would partake in anything myself I would certainly raise a smile if something unfortunate happened to the person / company in question.

Revenge is a waste of time. If you believe in God, then you should leave revnge to Him. If you are bitter about what someone has done to you, you are only hurting yourself.
If something bad happened to them and it's not of your doing, then you have no reason to worry - you may want to hope that they'd learned something from it. But it's best to always feel sorry for people, even your enemies.

Pray for them and get over it. Get passed it and go on with your life. Keep your distance from them for a while until you have had a chance to heal a little bit. But revenge will only ravage you in the long run. Look at the waste of time you are wasting on thinking such icky thoughts. It will consume you. Be free of this dilemma. You treat people how to treat you. Set boundaries and all will be fine. Wish them good things and pray for God to soften their hearts and be the sweet person God intended you to be. Or you could get ill you know. Be free of toxins. Good luck!
