One of my finds on a search that I did:
Resentments are the block that hold us back from loving ourselves and others
Resentments do not punish the other person
They punish us
They are barriers to our enjoyment of life
They prevent us from being in harmony with this world
They are hardened chunks of anger
They loosen up and dissolve with forgiveness and letting go
Letting go does not mean we allow the other person to get away with wrong doing.
It means we accept what happened in the past and we set boundaries for the future
We can let go of the resentments and still have the boundries!
We try to see the good in the person, or the good that ultimately comes from whatever we feel resentful about
We try to see our part
Then we put the incident to rest
Praying for those we resent helps. Ask a higher power to take our resentments away
What better way of cleaning the slate of our past and entering this new world filled with resentments
