Joy and resentment are emotions, but they carry energy. That energy greatly influences my life. The lesson adults teach about not making enemies is based on their own experience of that influence. When we go to court, we often see many people there because they harbor resentment, whether in civil or criminal cases. That demonstrates the power and impact of resentment. Ignoring emotions will eventually have consequences. Don’t make enemies; instead, always choose to share joy. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
If you’re angry, it’s important to seek an apology from the person who wronged you. Anger that doesn’t lead to an apology becomes a mere emotional release. Sometimes, it can be more beneficial not to hold on to anger, especially when you can’t expect an apology. Mental management allows you to assess the situation. If you believe an apology isn’t forthcoming, you might find it easier to redirect that anger inward, preserving your dignity in the process. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
