Taking revenge is a bitter sweet thing. I have always thought that people should always get what they desire, whether it be a grade, a smile and hug or in some cases, revenge. When I was in high school there seemed to be someone always trying to get me in trouble, they would say things that wouldn't be true or do things to make me look bad. The fact that I never seemed to do anything to them would make me mad and wonder what I could do to get them back. Revenge would usually come in some sort of verbal put down or I would try to physically hurt them. It always seemed when I would get the revenge right away I would feel really good but as I thought about what I did, and what they did to me I would always feel guilty or wish I would have never done anything to them in return.

In the bible it is said that we should treat others as we would like to be treated, and when I would hurt someone physically or mentally I would be disobeying what the bible said. If I am to get revenge on others, what happens when they get revenge on me, will it ever stop or would it have been easier to just walk away and no say anything or let it bothered me. Now that I'm in college I feel that revenge comes in different forms. Now instead of hurting others I am in for taking revenge on the basketball floor.

If I get beat, it means my team and I didn't play up to our potential or that they worked harder than us on a given night. Its not a life or death matter but when the next game comes I want to beat the life out of them. When the game is over and I feel that the revenge has been taken I don't feel like I shouldn't have done it or that I feel bad that they lost and I won, I have feelings of happiness and joy. So revenge can be a great thing if its done for the right reason. The revenge taken because of childish pranks or words said is a bad time to get revenge because its not right but when you are getting revenge for something like a game and wanting to win, it can be one of the greatest feelings in the world..
