Revenge, for me, isn’t about anger or hurting someone back. its by simply becoming what they said I couldn’t.
It may sound funny--
When I graduated, one of my classmates casually said a bunch of names , “they’ll never get employed.” I was right there when he said it. I didn’t argue, didn’t try to convince him otherwise. But deep down, I took his words as a silent challenge.
By the end of that same year, I got hired by an IT company.
At that point, I wanted to share the news with him—not to boast, but to face the words he once said. But he was nowhere around. I later found out from some other classmates that he had moved to another city—nearly 400 kilometers away—still struggling to find a job.
It took awhole day to travel, but I went to find him. I finally met him and handed him a sweet.
And I simply said:18Please respect copyright.PENANAM4qySNEWX2
“Just because you can’t, doesn’t mean others can’t.”
He was speechless.18Please respect copyright.PENANAQAU81N5hu8
That moment—more than getting the job—was the one that gave me true satisfaction.
