Resentment
from
p. 552 of Alcoholics Anonymous, the Big Book
of AA
If
you have a resentment you want to be free of, if you
will pray for the person or the thing that you resent,
you will be free. If you will ask in prayer for everything
you want for yourself to be given to them, you will
be free. Ask for their helth, their prosperity, their
happiness, and you will be free. Even when you don't
really want it for them, and your prayers are only words
and you do't mean it, go ahead and do it anyway. Do
it every day for two weeks and you will find you have
come to mean it and to want it for them, and you will
realize that where you used to feel bitterness and resentment
and hatred, you now feel compassionate understanding
and love.
