Description

Bitterness, or resentment, is anger compounded over time.


Bitter roots can run deep. Bitterness doesn't just happen on the first offense, it simmers slowly and with each offense, it grows.


My therapist used to say that bitterness is like a cut. The first time you get a cut, it can heal pretty quickly. The second, third, fourth time you hit it in that same place, it's going to take longer to heal because the wound now runs deeper. Bitterness is the same; each time someone hurts us using the same pattern, in a similar scenario, or leaves us with the same feeling, it drives that bitterness or resentment down deeper.
