The Rules of Life

(Grace) #1

are being horrid to you, it’s natural to want to get your own
back and lash out. Don’t. Once this rough time has passed,
you will be so proud of yourself for keeping the moral high
ground that it will taste a thousand times better than revenge
ever would.


I know revenge is tempting, but you won’t go there. Not now,
not ever. Why? Because if you do you’ll be sinking to others’
level, you’ll be at one with the beasts instead of the angels (see
Rule 9), because it demeans you and cheapens you, because
you will regret it, and lastly because if you do, then you’re no
Rules Player. Revenge is for losers. Taking and keeping the
moral high ground is the only way to be. It doesn’t mean
you’re a pushover or a wimp. It just means that any action you
do take will be honest and dignified and clean.
