Do you bare a grudge?

In my own opinion, holding a grudge is so unhealthy. Whenever I can foresee stressors, I immediately find ways to divert my attention or at least avoid them in any way I could. Grudges should be eliminated in one's self so that one can have a stress-free and happy life :)

It's hard for me to forgive when someone has offended me. But holding grudges is not really healthy for me. The world is small and one day, I can see that person again, so I realized that I should learn to forgive.

no not as an adult I had a grudge against a girl in my third grade who said something so mean about my dear mom that I wanted to knock her head off and I guess I was really trying when the teacher stopped me. then she told me that while the child had said something really bad my hurting her was not the answer. She then asked me if I would accept an apology from this girl, and I said, yes but she better mean it. well he child did apologize to me and she also never spoke to me again either. I learned the hard way that holding a grudge only hurt you not the person whom you had the grudge against.So I just turned my back onto rude remarks and if the person persisted I would walk completely away from the person making the mean remarks.

I don't hold a grudge .............too often LOL I do however get angry and have to talk to myself and a for instance is my sons step mom. I have had to back off and let it all be. I have done all I can do and I have my place and she has hers. Now I can honestly say I've done my best.

I have never been the kind of person who can hold a grudge for very long. I may get angry and hurt over something and I will vow to never speak with some again. Usually by the end of the day, the matter is forgotten. I have moved on. I don't know how people can keep ill feelings inside for so long? It is not healthy for mind or body.

No, that's i do not bear grudge to someone who annoys me....i maybe get irritated but not with the person but at the situation i'm into.... i maybe be angered by the situation but after a minute or two i'll just forget what had happened i may learn from the mistakes or the situation and try not to be in that situation again :-)

Hi Rosie, Good day! Just like you I also don't bare a grudge. If the person did something wrong and really bad to me I don't waste my time, effort and energy thinking how I'd be able to get even with her/ him. I just move on and try to concentrate on good things and spend my time with real friends.

Never. I have a soft heart. I forgive people easily. I have been inspired from a verse from the bible. Once peter asked Jesus, ' How often shall i forgive my brother, upto 7 times, Jesus said no but unto 77 times." I have forgiven so many people who have hurt me, which is not liked by my wife and my mother.
