I’m glad you brought up the domino effect. The hardest part is getting started, getting unblocked. But after that, it’s so liberating that you have to wonder why you held on to bitterness for so long.

i found your post by way of pc. i just wanted to say how fantastic it is, and very inspiring. this particular post got to me because i’ve probably gone through everything you talked about; in a different way of course. i keep reminding myself to let go and move forward – release the blame on yourself and others, and take control of the flow of positive things into your life. it is difficult at first, but once it takes, it’s like a domino effect, and feels great. people and loved ones will start to take notice, and your life will change. thanks again.

empee, x

After reading your post I felt an inside fire begin to ignite. I wanted to blurt out all the reasons I have for bitterness, and wanted to be validated and justified, which is another part of human nature not to be ignored. Perhaps you could write on that topic someday…You take on such a difficult topic here, though, I really have to commend you.

After I thought about my own bitterness for a little bit, and the things I wanted to blurt, I felt those flames do thier work — at my core was a discovery: You are talking about the Parable of the Sower, here. Whether we are strewn into the fertile grounds where our seeds may flourish— or not, we were still given the gift of life. I believe this is the truth that Jesus was trying to portray in the parable of the Sower. Thank you for inspiring these thoughts in me, these self confrontations. All we can do is work through bitterness through inspiration and change our minds as we take on different perspectives. Not easy but possible.
