Revenge

I am witnessing the ending of a very short marriage. Many factors caused the demise of this marriage, the most important one is the fact they should have never married.

Yes, this tragic ending, didn't have to have a beginning, but it did. In this case, the female involved wanted it and she got it.

Sometimes when we get what we want, we find it may not really want us. Our perceived rejection causes us to want to take revenge or to see the other person hurt. To keep ones sanity it is best to assume they are hurting, and the proof is in direct correlation to the fact they hurt you.

It will only become a vicious cycle, revenge that is. It is so true, "If you did a ditch, you had better dig two, because the one you did may be for you." The Universe, the Creator, the great I AM, the Higher Power, God, does not fail. What comes around really does go around.

Acceptance is the cure for rejection. First, you must accept you cannot truly be rejected, because what is meant to be for you no one can take away, or minimize. It is up to you to find your purpose and those meant to tag along while you journey through your life. When it seems someone has rejected you, all that is really happening is they are making room for the one who will not. It is all for the good, yes, even the bad.

Second, you must recognize your part in whatever has occurred, take responsibility and move on. Plain and simple. Taking responsibility, no matter how small really does soothe the sting. When we can see our part, it lessons how we feel about the situation.

  1. This is important on so many levels. I know people who cry "woe is me" and never acknowledge their part in the outcome of situations. We make choices and then we make the outcomes work!
