Grudges

[Saraibre Ryu]

nor did I ever say I am holding a grudge against anyone or anything right now.

I carry a lot of grudges around with me.

*cough*


Also I don't see what 'picking the popular side' has to do with some people's morale choices. If not holding grudges was the popular thing to do, a lot more people would be doing it, to act on it. They aren't, otherwise there would be a lot less hate in this world. Again, how is making a decision to hold ill will against someone natural? I don't see the animals hunted off holding a grudge to the hunters that kill them for sport and fun. It's a product. Also I don't see how this is a fluff topic either.

Anyone who says you have to let something go is ignoring the amazing things that have been done through anger and bitterness.

Amazing things? Like what, war? Discrimination against minority groups that want equal rights? The positive things created in war were made by the people who were out to defend themselves and their people, such as the freedom you mentioned earlier. Not because they were just bitter about the other side and mad at them. People vouching for equal rights as a minority in the past did it because they didn't like how things were going and wanted a better life for themselves and fairness. You mentioned some paintings and artwork, but those weren't created because someone put pure anger into it. They transformed the emotion and energy and translated it into an alternative expression, as such what art itself is: an expression of a person in an alternate form. Direct anger and bitterness creates resentment and these grudges. I've done it, but I haven't done art because I was angry or bitter, I did it because I wanted to divert that energy to something else.

Are negative things necessary in life, such as anger and sadness and pain? Yes, because they define what is positive and teach the value of the positive things. Again, a grudge is a choice, and choosing to be negative is never a good thing.

Also even if I did live with extremely feelings..look at my presence on the forum look all the things I have done just on this site. You look at that and tell me that grudges are holding me back ;)

I did not nor specifically state that a grudge holds the entirety of a person back. It inhibits growth.

I'm not going to go into much detail into what you've done because that's a long list for the site, but I doubt you did them because you were angry or bitter at PXR. That was probably the last thing on your mind. I know that no one can do the forum 24/7 either, there are other things in your real life that you must do. It's not my place to say how your life works because I don't know it. The forum is one place though, not the single thing a person interacts with for their whole life.

Also, as far as one sided minded go, I fail to see how I'm one sided in mind when I've lived in nothing but extreme bitterness and anger for years and seen what it's done. Those are details I do not want to get in to.
