“The best revenge is not to be like your enemy.” Marcus Aurelius

It's so easy to get carried away with hate - anger - and the urge to take revenge; worse still, often it feels like the only option that we have! However, that's never the truth, and whenever we choose to reciprocate the method of those who hurt us, we just, unknowingly, end up endorsing their ways - like if we meet violence with violence, we end up proving that violence is the only way, hence, in other words, the offenders were right while using it against us in the first place! So, don't be like those who hurt you. Don't use their methods. Remember: You are better than that...
