In the walk of true joy and happiness, living free of all resentment is the absolute must ingredient. Primarily because resentment and happiness can not exist in a human heart at the same time.
Harboring resentment is absolutely disastrous in the human life and foolish because this form of anger,regardless of the seeming cause, always comes back like a boomerang and harms the resentful person and never the person who one is angry with.
One way to look at resentment is the person who has a resentment is like a person who drinks a glass of toxic poison, sits down, and waits for that other person to get sick and perhaps die; The only person who is affected and harmed by a resentment is the one who is resentful.
Whenever a human soul has a resentment, he or she is a liar: a resentment is nothing other than refueling a past harm that really should be let go of and is wishing for a different, perhaps better past.
Nowadays, people let themselves get twisted up and bent out of shape because they know they are right and want to prove it,, but the six million Dollar question is: “Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy, joyful, and free”? If one wants to be happy. One needs to drop the grudges
So what is one to do? How does one let go of obsessive resentntful anger?
Here is one answer: In the beginning of my my spiritual journey about 25 years ago, I was told by my 12-step sponsor: “ If you have a resentment that you want to be rid of, If you will pray for that person every day for 2 weeks, asking God to give that person every thing in their life that you want in life yourself, before the 2 weeks are up,you will not only be free of that particular resentment but where you had bitter anger toward a person, you will begin feeling pity and compassion for the person.
I have witnessed this little prayer exercise work not only in my life but in the lives of countless friends in the anonymous 12-step fellowship, of which I am a grateful sober friend.
The short but powerful prayer that I share in my book entitled “Thy Will Be Done: Enjoy The Thrill of True Joy and Happiness” which robs no one of any time is this: “Dear God, give to (Name of person resented) everything in their life that I want in my own life, and even more. Give him( or her) all the peace, love, abundance and happiness that is possible to a human soul living on this earth, in time and someday, in heaven forever. Amen!”
It should be known now that everything that happens in our life is a result of God’s great love. Things that I have and things that I don’t have are all a part of God giving it or withholding it. Everything is God’s love in motion.
Next,, I want to share just a few tips for healthy and happy well-being that one way wish to consider:
- Consider taking a 10-minute walk, preferably in nature, every day and while you’re walking, smile at creation with a grateful heart, God loves grateful hearts!
- After your walk, consider sitting in silence and meditate: talk to God about your goals and ask him how you ought to go about accomplishing them Most importantly, ask God if your goals are within his will for you. The answers to these questions will always come when one is ready for the answers to arrive.
- Eat more foods that grow on plants (berries and nuts) and eat less foods that are made in plants.
- Drink lots of water every day(1/2 gal.).
- Pray, hope, and don’t worry!
