I used to think that resentment was just a feeling. A strong, unpleasant feeling that eventually dissipates somewhere on its own. After all, I forgot about the insult?! I don’t constantly think about her and the person I offended?! This means there is no more resentment. This means there is nothing more to work through and you can move on with your life! But that was not the case. Having started studying to become a psychologist, I learned that resentment is not just unpleasant, IT IS THE STRONGEST CHARGE OF AGGRESSION DIRECTED INSIDE. And not inside anyone, but myself. After all, I was offended! And all these tons of negative energy are stored within me. And they come out at the most inopportune moment. Someone looked at me disapprovingly, just like my mother did in childhood - I reacted (resentment against my mother flares up, and a transference occurs to another person). A friend was late for a meeting - I reacted (my mother never picked me up from kindergarten on time, and I always had to wait). My beloved man did not react “properly” to my impulse to hug, he said that he was busy now - I reacted (dad always avoided when I tried to hug him, and I was very hurt and offended). I can give a LOT of such examples! And all this POUND was previously stored in me! In my body. And it wasn’t just stored in my body, causing a lot of inconvenience, IT prevented me from COMMUNICATING NORMALLY WITH PEOPLE! The world seemed evil and unfair. And I was a VICTIM of this world! I remember that time, and I am still glad that that stage of life is already in the past for me. That having gotten rid of grievances, I not only lost weight, brought joy and energy back into my life, but also learned to interact with the world, with the people who surround me. And now for me communication is not torture, IT IS JOY. Do you want equally wonderful changes to happen in your life?! Get rid of grievances! Allow yourself to be happy!
