Letting go of grudges

Many people interact through the prism of passive aggression.⠀
⠀
They are hurt/upset from a previous experience either with this particular person or a group that this person belongs to. ⠀
⠀
You don’t need to hold onto old grudges – most of the things can be resolved. Seriously! ⠀
⠀
I know you don’t love confrontation, most of us don’t. ⠀
⠀
But here’s what:⠀
⠀
Holding on sucks your life force. ⠀
⠀
Why are you doing it?⠀
⠀
How to know for sure that you’re holding on?⠀
⠀
Simple: if at the sight or even thought of a particular person you feel you are cringing on the inside – it means there is something unresolved/unprocessed.⠀
⠀
Reach out – express – resolve – let go
⠀
Here’s a challenge though: try expressing in a non-aggressive way, check your language – is there a judgement or (even if subtle) attack that’s behind your words?
⠀
You have better things to invest your energy into.⠀
⠀
In some cases for various reasons no resolution is possible either for the time being or forever. ⠀
⠀
But even in that case it’s possible to resolve things at the level of the soul.⠀
⠀
Yes, you can actually talk to people’s souls. Sometimes it’s more than enough.
