Quote: "Resentment always hurts you more than it does the person you resent. While your offender has probably forgotten the offense and gone on with life, you continue to stew in your pain, perpetuating the past. Those who hurt you in the past cannot continue to hurt you now unless you hold on to the pain through resentment. Your past is your past. Nothing will change it. You are only hurting yourself with your bitterness. For your own sake, learn from it, and let it go". - Rick Warren.

Quote: Stop giving room for resentments. We all have them sometimes. Whether they are toward our parents, partners, or peers, resentments takes up too much psychic space to allow us to function properly. By choosing to drop them, you will make your life much lighter".- Ella Randle.

Quote: "Let go of resentment or what would have been. Be concerned with what is to come and the moment is yours to create as you wish". - Take Heart Quotes.
