One of the most self-destructive things I’ve ever done something I’m never proud of and often regret was when someone played cheap with me, and in anger, I asked a couple of people to write similar comments she once used to trap me. My contribution was less, but still part of it. (Yes I admit I don't stay behind curtains).
One day, when my friend comment was posted, the girl complained to company. After some discussion, it was covered as a hacking bla bla stuff issue which I later know. Meanwhile, her friend approached my teammate, asking why all this was happening. My teammate mentioned me after knowing some part of it, and ended the conversation.
I, however, took things comically, consumed by revenge, even taking credit for actions I hadn’t done. Looking back, I realize how foolish I was.
Later, I understood that this thirst for revenge born of anger and depression never gave me peace. It only destroyed me from the inside.
That’s when my journey shifted. I decided to become a man who brings happiness, spreads peace, and values harmony. The greatest lesson I learned: the less I expect from others, the less I get hurt.
