When you hold grudges and blame, you hold it all in and that causes you to continuously think about it and play the victim role. When something bad happens to you, talk about it, act on it and then let it go. Usually the one's that hurt us don't even realize or care that we are still hurting. If it's something that has happened in the past, get it out, right it down, whatever needs to be done and then get over it. A disclaimer here, if it's something that is really causing issues in your life, see a professional. WM of PBC
Start forgiving yourself and others. – We’ve all been hurt by our own decisions and by others. And while the pain of these experiences is normal, sometimes it lingers for too long. We relive the pain over and over and have a hard time letting go. Forgiveness is the remedy. It doesn’t mean you’re erasing the past, or forgetting what happened. It means you’re letting go of the resentment and pain, and instead choosing to learn from the incident and move on with your life.
This is hard to grasp and I have been involved in many conversations about forgiveness. I forgive myself for the situations and choices I have made over the years, they were made, they are in my past and nothing can change that now. I have made really bad choices and I have make some really good choices, but most of all I have learned and taken steps to make better choices. I am still learning about myself and welcome the opportunity to take this journey. WM of PBC
