Resentment

Resentment, jealousy and anger are by far the most crippling human characteristics. They are the ultimate symbol of mental and spiritual stagnation. By carrying such a senseless burden, one is weighted so greatly that they become rooted to these convictions and are unable to spiritually blossom. But perhaps this is their intention? Weak beings tend to prey on others by attempting to break them down, to punish them for offending them in some way. An offense of words, which could be a mere misunderstanding, poor communication. Or perhaps they have simply witnessed another human being who displays characteristics that they are lacking in themselves? To be offended in itself is an unfortunate human flaw. It indicates that a person relies on the opinions and accomplishments of others to evaluate their own self-worth.

The real tragedy in holding this way of thinking is a person who endures feeling resented because they are unable to see any other choice. They mistakenly believe that by holding their insecurities against another person that they have gained superiority. And then to further their new found status, they demand an apology from the supposed offender! As if that will somehow heal their wounded ego!

So what is a progressive spiritually enlightened being to do when encountering humans with these self-imposed glitches? The only solution is to love, unconditionally. Refusing to engage in someone else's battle with themselves. To understand that most humans have not embraced their spiritual counterpart and have many lifetimes of correction ahead.

Conclusion: Better to deflect than to engage.
