Resent Someone?

The moment you begin resenting a person, you become his slave. He controls your dreams, absorbs your digestion, robs you of your peace of mind and good will, and takes away the pleasure of your work. He ruins your religion and nullifies your prayers. You cannot take a vacation without his going along!

He destroys your freedom of mind and hounds you wherever you go. There is no way to escape the person you resent. He is with you when you are awake: he invades your privacy when you sleep. He is close beside you when you eat, when you drive your car, and when you are on the job.

You can never have efficiency nor happiness. He influences even the tone of your voice. He requires you to take medicine for indegestion, headaches and loss of energy. He even steals your last moment of consciousness before you go to sleep.

So, if you want to be a slave, harbor your resentments!

Thanks, Robbie! Just what I needed to read before I climb into bed..... especially since I've had some resentments this weekend that I've been carrying around with me.

Some thing we need to think about. Why do peple get upset when realaity slaps them in the face. Life is good but we have to remember there are unpleasant topics too. We must smile and say we will deal with the good and bad. We must take one day at a time and upsets at their value. Say it a new day and move on . just a thought angelmom

We are human:) All we can do is take one day at a time! One meal at a time! Today I can do this. ;)
