I can get so used to talking about resentment as though it's socially acceptable
"I've got a resentment", I will say
The truth is that the problem is not out there
It's inside
The problem when I have a resentment is not their behaviour
It's my character
When I force myself to say, rather than "I'm resentful", "I'm mean-spirited" [which is what resentment is], I find myself much more promptly working to eliminate the actual problem, which is not others, but my mean-spiritedness
I recognise that by acknowledging my bankruptcy, I empty myself out, and I go straight to the Higher Power for an entirely different way of looking at things
