In my younger years, I held onto grudges against people and situations until I no longer had the energy or time to justify it. These grudges were against my employer of 22 years that let me go because of a new CEO and because of a cheating ex husband plus people who I thought were my friends.
As time went on, I learned that holding onto grudges only was hurting myself emotionally and physically. In turn, I have become more selective of who I trust.
Recently, someone who I thought that was my friend was playing games with me. For example, she crashed her ex husband’s Dad’s funeral then blamed it on me because my life is more fulfilling than hers. Plus, she pushed me to do my online closet and stop blogging. Also, to endlessly clean my house to be on her level. We’ve known each other for years became friends at work then she became my supervisor. She was chosen over me because of my good relationship with my CEO. Decided to end the relationship which I have lightened my mood.
Grudges/resentments are unhealthy. Forgive and move on. Life is worth living fully so let go of the things and people that stop you.
