Vengeance

What experiences could lead a person to seek revenge? How could an obsession with vengeance lead to tragedy? Jot down your responses and include examples from stories or movies.

Something that would lead a person to seek revenge would probably be like murder, war, and several other things. For example, Genhis Khan's village was attacked by other Mongolians and his wife was kidnapped. He prepared himself and his troops for a revenge and burned the whole rival village down and captured and killed everyone. He tortued them and made them slaves. Misa, a person from this cartoon had a notebook called the DeathNote. When you jot down someone's name on the Deathnote or look at someone's face for once then jot down an image, you can instantly kill that person with a heart attack. She did it in revenge because of a murderer killed her parents and she wrote down his name. Obsessions with vengeance can eventually lead to tragedy because you either regret it, or other people who were friends to that person would want revenge on you too. It is quite sad because many people want vegence, and when it happens, they get nothing out of it. Just like this episode in the Simpsons in TreeHouse Horror. Homer (protraying as this French noble), killed this person who put him in jail because of false charges and stole Homer's wife. Homer's wife actually hated him for doing that and left Homer, which is pretty sad. Vengeance is not good.
