All of A sudden

[Misty_Morning]

I am feeling quite pissed off!


I am so fucking tired of getting fucked over and being a "team player".




I want to taste the blood of others. I want to KNOW that the motherfuckers that did me wrong will get "THEIRS."


But, alas...the pacifist in me says...don't bring yourself down to their level, do not bring bad karma back to you.


But HOLY Fuck!!! I want justice.


And THAT makes me wonder.....do I start a war for me? Is THAT how all wars
are started?

REVENGE!!!!

HOW THE FUCK COULD "THEY" DO THIS TO ME?

I WILL GET MINE...JUST YOU WAIT AND SEE......



see what?



At what point does injustice become a war? It happens everyday.






Today....I began my war...and already I regret it.

hushes misty and holds her gently, wishing only her peace and quiet solitude, to come to a resolution of the dark problem of war and revenge.

The thing that sucks the most about being a pacifist, or a good-nick, isn't the inability to do something really reprehensibile to the person that did you wrong. No the thing that sucks is that when you do wage war against the person that did you wrong, you suffer guilt.

I've been there myself. I have spoken, nay yelled, in justified anger and by conscience been forced to apologize.

But there is hope. The righteous can wage war, but it is a slow war.

So if you march to war, either leave conscience behind or be prepared for a long battle.

If the revenge is justified I don't see a problem. From the tone of your post it sounds like it is. Stick it in and break it off.

What is best in life?

To crush your enemies and see them driven before you and hear the lamentation of the vimin. <(that'd be women) ~ Conan, the Barbarian (as played by Arnold Schwarzenegger)




or turn the other cheek...?

NAH! Crush them like grapes!

I learned violence from my mother. If you fucked with her she would get you. She'd ruin your whole life if it was possible. Her attitude was: People dont like you one bit better if youre sweet.

Your Mom was mistaken.

It worked for her. She was empowered and self-actuated.

perhaps.
But I still stand by my assessment of her "attitude" ~"People don't like you one bit better if you're sweet."

I am rather certain the reverse is much more often true.

And further more ~ one should not mistake "fear" for "respect".

The little bit of your mother that I "know", I do not like at all.

Most people didnt like her. But they always picked her to take charge and make things happen. Thats how politics really works.

Then it seems she was wrong. About being liked just as well.

I do not contest that one can (and often does) become successful/powerful by being "abrasive" or forceful or even mean...

and sometimes it is a defense mechanism or even survival technique.

It's the oldest game on Earth: Help your friends, hurt your enemies, use the ones in the middle.

I thought it was prostitution...
OH! that's the oldest profession!

regardless, I do my best not to play that game.

As for Misty... I hope she finds her balance.

It is better to be feared than loved.

You can choose whom you love, but enemies arise unbidden.

Keep charging the enemy as long as there is life.

The desire for revenge is one of the most natural of human instincts. The decision to act on that desire is based on the limits the person has and how far the aggressor has transgressed against them.

 

[THROBBS]

I prefer the "unnatural" loving instinct!

 

[WRJames]

Have you ever studied conflict resolution? It is, or at least it is intended to be, and ethical way of dealing with conflict. So you can work your way out of being trampled on in a "nice" way.

However, there is one phase in conflict resolution called "power balancing". That is where, if there is an unequal relationship, you somehow convince the "superior" party that a change is needed. Basically, you beat the shit out of them until they pay attention. That has always been my favorite part.

I think my daughter currently would agree with your mother. She's been nice and thoughtful and conciliatory to another girl who has decided she hates my daughter. Result: She still hates my daughter, even more than she used to and is using the school system and her ability to lie to try and get her officially reprimanded for abuse.
My advice to daughter: make it worth it.
