Revenge only leads to more heartache from "summary" of Twisted Hate by Ana Huang

Seeking revenge is a tempting prospect, a way to right the wrongs done to us, to make the ones who hurt us suffer in return. It's a cycle of pain and anger that seems to offer solace, a way to regain power in a situation where we felt powerless. But what we often fail to realize is that revenge only breeds more heartache, more suffering that perpetuates the cycle of pain. When we act out of revenge, we are consumed by our anger and desire for retribution. We lose sight of the bigger picture, of the consequences of our actions not just for the ones we seek to hurt, but for ourselves as well. Revenge blinds us to the humanity of others, to the possibility of forgiveness and healing. It perpetuates a cycle of violence and hurt that only serves to deepen the wounds we carry within us. In seeking revenge, we give power to the ones who hurt us, allowing them to dictate our actions and emotions. We become slaves to our need for vengeance, unable to break free from the cycle of pain and anger. We lose sight of ourselves in the process, of the values and principles that make us who we are. Revenge consumes us, leaving us empty and hollow, lost in a sea of bitterness and regret. It takes strength to break free from the cycle of revenge, to choose forgiveness and healing over anger and hurt. It takes courage to let go of the need for retribution, to embrace empathy and understanding instead. It is only through forgiveness and compassion that we can truly heal, that we can break free from the chains of pain and anger that bind us. Revenge may seem like a quick fix, a way to even the score, but in the end, it only leads to more heartache, more suffering that we carry within us.
