Villainous
Daily Meditation 1,163–5/17/2025
A simple and short DM for today:
Many of us could very easily have “the right” to become “villains” in our life stories.
Your husband of 15 years has cheated on you…with 20 different partners since the first week you met.
You lost your first baby to a miscarriage and now your 2 year old has terminal cancer.
A drunk driver paralyzed you from the neck down.
A teacher molested you when you were just 12 and she got off the hook for it…and then you had to move at 18 to escape all the rumors and bullying.
A woman falsely accused you of rape at 19 years old and you ended up imprisoned for nearly a decade before finally being released — and nothing happened to her.
Your alcoholic husband beat you and your children daily for years before dying in a horrible wreck…then left you nothing, not even your home, and his family hate your guts.
I could create 1,000 of these scenarios and all 1,000 could easily be fleshed out into stories for film and TV where any individual person could “be forgiven” or sympathized with for developing into a “villainous” person.
