He's right about the ceasefire. Not to diminish Israel's pain. Revenge is worse than bittersweet. Taking revenge hurts the avenger worse. Every day that you live with anger and bitterness is like living with a sickness that eats you from the inside. Every night that you go to sleep imagining revenge is time that you could have spent experiencing love. I mourn every second that you missed your love. I'm lucky and happy to have never gotten my revenge. I carried the sickness of a victim and spent good time imagining horrible things and every second I did this good left me and I was diminished and if I would have made it to the end and followed through with retribution then I would have lost too much and I will never let people take my love again!
Somebody told me that I choose to be angry and I knew when she said it that she was telling the truth and I still embarrassed myself by choosing to be angry at her and argued like a crazy person with myself and became angry with myself because she was just sad for me. Somebody had to say it. It's hard enough to NOT be angry when you are purposefully hurt by another. it may help your decision to know that they are in pain and they want someone to feel it because the anger they chose has driven them to demand what can only be given which is empathy and compassion and if you don't feel sadness or empathy and at least understand why (I KNOW it's not fair) then you will catch this disease and maybe pass it on. Choosing anger and revenge is choosing to make yourself sick.
Most of the time, I'm not strong enough, and I avoid people's pain, but sometimes I can listen and cry for them, myself, and everybody else.
