Bitter, angry, spiteful, vindicative, defensive, belligerent, inciteful, unforgiving... These are words words I live by, unless I am deep in self-pity, sorrow, distress, hopelesslessness,...
I'm 36 yrs. old and I have never forgotten or forgiven anyone who ever crossed me. I still remember the kid that chipped my tooth in 2nd grade when he hit me in the mouth. I remember the kid that told on me for saying a bad word in 3rd grade. I remember the girl that kicked me in the n*ds in 4th grade. The list goes on and on. My feelings of animosity toward them never fade.
Why should I let it go? I feel I should hold that until someday I get the chance to return the "favor."
I know this hasn't been positive or helpful to anyone and is purely self-descriptive (how selfish.)
