I don’t hold you responsible any more for what happened to me. It seems silly I have been doing that.
I and only I, am responsible for things that happen to me.
Quoting PG,
Someone who does you an injury hurts you twice: first by the injury itself, and second by taking up your time afterward thinking about it. If you learn to ignore injuries you can at least avoid the second half. I’ve found I can to some extent avoid thinking about nasty things people have done to me by telling myself: this doesn’t deserve space in my head. I’m always delighted to find I’ve forgotten the details of disputes, because that means I hadn’t been thinking about them. My wife thinks I’m more forgiving than she is, but my motives are purely selfish.
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
Ivlo feeling! aagadhe
