Holding onto grudges

Summershy April 11th

I am a woman living on the autism spectrum and I have been working through a healing journey.  As I have been praying and doing positive affirmations, I came to this realization.   I have been carrying a lot of grudges against other people. 

Some of the reasons

1. Over condescending remarks or actions that they said from years ago

2. Being overlooked, ignored, or left out

@Summershy i don't blame you for holding onto these grudges. a lot of people preach forgiveness, but it's all about what gives you the least pain & the most joy. if forgiveness genuinely lightens your load, forgive. but if you want to stay angry, stay angry.

Summershy OP May 16th

I don't think staying angry is so good for my health.  Whereas, forgiveness means accepting that a person hurt you but you don't let their actions bother you anymore.    It also means accepting that you can't change a person or your circumstances
