Over anything? How long do you hold grudges?

A teacher I had for numerous years in school ridiculed me every chance she got. I will never forgive her, so yes I am bitter.

I had a nasty teacher in high school. Always singled me out for no reason. He was reprimanded by the school principle. He died shortly thereafter of a massive heart attack, in his early forties! Wow!

I've been bitter and held grudges towards many events from my past, especially the deep wounds caused by my biological father. Time does seem to heal most wounds. I choose to be happy instead of rolling in the muck .

You must have heard the saying, "Being bitter against another person is like drinking poison every day and hoping the other guy dies"? What goes around comes around. When someone treats me badly, I choose to sit back and watch it "come around". It does.
