Tom Walsh Quote
Resentment causes us to stay in the past, our minds focused on the wrongs that have been done to us. It really is time to let go of it just as we would let go of something that’s too hot and that would burn us if we held on to it too long. If we hold on to resentment even slightly too long, we’re risking great injury—emotional and spiritual—not just to ourselves, but to those we resent, too. So let’s let it go. Just for today.
