Is there someone you hate? Well,maybe you don't really hate them,but you get really angry every time you think of them. If you don't let this anger go,it can turn into bitterness(痛苦).
Bitterness appears when we can't forgive(原谅)someone who has hurt us or made us angry. Someone might say or do something that hurts us. And instead of resolving(化解)the anger,we keep it deep inside. Before long,a bitter feeling begins to grow. We may think we're hurting that person by criticizing(指责)him or her often,but we're really only hurting ourselves.
Bitterness can not only lead to serious health problems such as heart disease,but also hurt our relationships with friends and family members. No one enjoys getting along with an angry person for long.
If you see bitterness in your life , here are some ways to deal with it. Accept It
Instead of trying to deny your anger,make it clear to yourself and accept it. Face your anger and quickly deal with it.
Stop Making Excuses for It
You may feel you have a right to be angry. You may think you're right and the other person is wrong. You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look bad. But in the end,bitterness hurts you much more than the other person. The bitterness will hold you back,and the other person will go on with his or her life.
