Are you holding a grudge? About?
We live in a world of human, where fallibility characterizes the nature of all.
Grudge is a conscious human reaction to a perceived negative action exhibited by another person or group of persons against us or against our affiliates.
The ability to know that man by nature is not without errors in his daily actions, reactions and interactions, will help us to conscientiously manage our grudge or grudges, if we are offended by virtue of other people’s actions or way of live.
Our imperfections as human is the basis of our errors and offences, we must however see human as human and not as demy god or robot.
Moreover, grudge endangers human psychology which can lead to an emotional imbalance in humans. It beclouds our sense of rational thinking and we become myopic and insensitive to the differences of other people as well as their frailty as human.
Inability to forgive and let go, keeps us perpetually in the tunnel of despondency and depression if care is not taken.
In some cases, people we have grudge against might not be aware of ever offending us. Grudge hurts the exhibitor more than the offender. Therefore, there is no profit in keeping grudge for more than necessary, it is advisable for us to walk up to the offender(s), we must learn how to express our displeasures to issues, and to settle as well as bury the matter.
But if our offenders appear to be incorrigible, we need to walk away, not because we are cowards, but because we have our emotions and lives to protect.
I see everyone one that daily comes across my paths as potential offenders, I have prepared by mind to forgive and forget even before the offences come. I have too many things on my plate to attend to, than to unnecessarily condition my mind to remain at the corridor of grudge.

That is so well written. I totally agree with this:
“If our offenders appear to be incorrigible, we need to walk away, not because we are cowards, but because we have our emotions and lives to protect.”
Sir, about this line :
“Grudge is a conscious human reaction to a perceived negative action exhibited by another person or group of persons against us or against our affiliates.”
I think sir, this is not a conscious human reaction…this is more like acting on auto pilot…its a sub-conscious reaction, human being since their inception have this built-in urge to ‘defend’ as they faced so many dangers, so this is in our DNA!
Yes, we need to practice to overcome this urge and make a ‘conscious response’ rather than react on the spur of the moment! Just my 2 cents sir.
