/^t/It can happen at any time that somebody hurts us, simply unconsciously or on purpose. Then, quite naturally anger comes; sometimes mixed with tears. We promise ourselves to take a revenge and pay back in kind. Very often resentment fulfills our hearts and the revenge does not bring expected results. Thinking about experienced harm over and over again rouses in us pain, anger and hate. All those feelings become a real poison, which, unfortunately, we decide to offer to ourselves. It has bad influence on our nervous and hormonal system, which can result in health problems. Moreover, meditating on our suffering and planning the revenge poison our mind. We cannot give up our thoughts that are focused on the past unpleasant events. We just foment the flame of grief in ourselves.
