WHAT IS RESENTMENT?
Resentment is a feeling of anger or bitterness towards someone or something that is perceived to have wronged or offended us in some way. It often involves holding on to negative emotions and dwelling on past experiences.
"RESENTMENT IS LIKE TAKING POISON AND WAITING FOR THE OTHER PERSON TO DIE."
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO LET GO OF RESENTMENT?
It's important to let go of resentment because holding onto negative emotions can have a negative impact on our mental and physical health, as well as our relationships with others.
Resentment can lead to stress, anxiety, depression, and even physical health problems. It can also make it difficult to move on from painful past experiences and build positive relationships with others.
Letting go of resentment can bring a sense of emotional freedom and allow us to focus on the present moment and positive aspects of our lives.
