Resentments
Resentments are not caused by the other person - the other person just did what he or she did, and you resented it.
Resentments are caused by how you handle what happened.
You resent at a subconscious level and attempt to keep the spotlight on the other person. We point at the other person so we don't have to look at ourselves.

shit in my yard i wrote this in 2006...
Have you?
Wed, July 26, 2006 - 9:49 PM is when I put this to words and the image is when I was inspired as I was going over Trail Ridge Road in Colorado....have you ever wondered?
what makes a person do
the things they do
have you ever looked
into the eyes soul
do you see what i see?
what image do you project
out
is it perceived like you think it is?
why do some see you walk
like a king
when you feel not golden
why do some feel golden
when they look
like a rejected stray?
others must not see
the souls water stir
behind the pupil
why did Pirsig seek
the same thing
Phaedrus sought?
Have you
ever seen the naked
reality of the space you stand in?
are there others out there Morpheus?
seeking souls
questioning the construct?
being authentic
from ted.com :: Colleen Steen : Feb 24 2011: I've
often been told that I am authentic, and when I started getting this
feedback years ago, I thought "what the heck does that mean"? I realized
that the compliment was often coming after knowing someone for awhile,
and they often seemed surprised that I say what I mean, mean what I say,
and walk my talk. I know who and what I am and like to be fully in the
moment with any interaction. I think it means truely knowing ourself,
and willing to share ourself honestly with others. It doesn't mean being
vulnerable all the time without filters. It means knowing how and when
to use the filters, and knowing with whom we can be vulnerable or not.
It means knowing there is strength in vulnerability. It means coming
from a place of genuine love and respect, and leaving the ego in the
background most of the time:>) I am an adventurer and explorer in
this earth school, and would not deprive myself the opportunity to
continue to learn, grow and evolve authentically:>)
me:: thats awesome
