"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that"

My Thoughts:
Another gem from Martin Luther King, Jr., It requires no extraordinary talent to understand this quote but surely it requires great patience to follow this one. We have the tendency to balance out things, we return Love for Love, Hate for Hate, Abuse for Abuse.

But we have to understand it’s good to return a Virtue for a Virtue but returning evil for an evil will not destroy the evil. Returning evil for an evil will certainly spread and elevate it. Like what Mahatma Gandhi says “An eye for an eye makes the world blind”

But here I want to make one thing clear -- always Justice should take precedence over your decisions. For example you would not let go a Murderer for his crime, he should be punished for his crime and the victim should get justice.

This was what I think. Share with me your thoughts.
