ANGER, RESENTMENT
AND VENGEANCE
Don’t let anyone bring you down so low as to
hate them. Release them from the hold they have on you and continue on with
peace in your heart. Life is short and is not worth wasting your time trying to
figure people out or prove anything to them. The only person you have to prove
anything to is yourself. Strive to be the best person you can possibly be, be
strong, and walk away. Holding on to bitterness and anger will only hinder your happiness. Your life is much too
precious to spend another minute worrying about someone that doesn’t bring you
happiness. Say goodbye and wish them well. After all, they’ve made you a
stronger person. They’ll see the light someday. ~Ladybug
