Some Thoughts on Revenge and Retribution

If Someone Has Hurt You, It's Your Turn To Get Even? I don't agree with this start from today onward. I've seem some incidents about retribution.
As the saying goes, "When it is off by a hair's breadth at the beginning, it will be off thousands of miles in the end." Thus, cultivation is to "guard one's own conduct and behaviour". One does not separate from his mind while walking, sitting, standing, or lying down." We should make our every thought pure and bright, not defile our thoughts and lead them into darkness. In every thought, we should all be very careful. If our thought is good, then, we shall get brightness in return. The more evil thinking that we harbor, the more darkness that we shall get. Good people have a bright light around them. Evil people are surrounded by dark energy. Therefore, good deeds or bad deeds that have been done will naturally be unfolded. You may think you can cheat people, but, you cannot cheat ghosts, spirits, the Buddhas, or the Bodhisattvas. Thus, no matter whether you are left home people or lay people, do not create offenses and refuse to establish meritorious deeds. We should know that the reason that we can not get out of the suffering of birth and death, the reason that we are still so confused is that we cannot clear our confusing account, we mixed right and wrong, or purity and defilement together. Therefore, we cannot transcend the cycle of the six destinies.
You know, my cousin met with a miscarriage few years ago. Grief is very individual, and friends and loved ones should try to be kind and supportive through this difficult process. But she had been embarrased by her own mother in-law and her family members, but today you know what happened? Her mother in-law's own daughter got premature baby, and is in dangerous condition right now! Is this what we called retribution in return? *sigh*
