Resentment


 "Resentment is the poison we drink, hoping it will harm others, only to find that it corrodes our own spirit from within."

This depicts resentment as a destructive emotion that not only negatively impacts others but also eats away at our own well-being. It uses the metaphor of poison to illustrate the harmful nature of resentment.

When we harbor resentment, we often believe it will affect the person or situation we resent. However, the quote suggests that it primarily harms us by eroding our inner peace, creating negative emotions, and affecting our mental and emotional health.

In essence, this encourages us to recognize that resentment ultimately does more harm to ourselves than to others. It serves as a reminder to seek healthier ways to address grievances, such as communication or forgiveness, in order to preserve our own emotional and mental well-being
