The Need For Revenge

Was I a little too harsh with the title? I hope not. But I came across a verse in the Bible that reads "Be not deceived, God is not mocked. Whatsoever a man soeth, that shall he also reap" in other words. Your deeds, good or bad will be repaid in kind. God knows that I have been paid back many a time for my misdeeds. Whatever people I have wronged may not have seen me get paid back for my misdeeds, but I can assure the reader that I did. There was a time when I thought nothing could bring me down from my so-called mountain. I had a house, three cars, not new, but I could drive any one I wanted to on any given day. I had a wife, a dog, and a baby girl, newborn, and all but one were completely taken away from me. God had humbled me tenfold. God took my pride, and showed me humility. Now I have to earn back everything that I lost. The things I took for granted, are very dear to me now. I have a new outlook on life. The one thing that really hasn't changed since then is my daughter's love for me. It keeps me going. It keeps me striving to be the best that I can be. I have been out of school for 17 years, and I got 6 hours of developmental courses under my belt, and one sophmore psychology class out of the way. That is indeed a personal best for me. The best is yet to come! I titled this blog the way I did because at the time I wanted seek revenge on my exwife for the wrong she did to me, but as I write this I look at myself and wonder if I am the one that needs changing. I was told many a time that I cannot change people, nor can I change my environment. I can only change myself. How true! Well, anyways, these are my feelings at the moment, I thought I would jot them down. Thanks for reading!
