Buddhism

This is especially true when some person you haven't chosen to be in your life, like a supervisor or boss, swoops down in your life and messes things up. Or when someone damages a relationship you have with another person. I think these resentments are difficult to get past.

When I find myself getting angry or upset by something that has happened and that I can't do anything about, I try to tell myself how this other person doesn't know how I'm feeling and that I'm letting them hurt me again.

I sometimes will read passages or comments in a book about Buddhism or Buddhist thoughts and then write down something I read. It helps bring your mind along to more positive thoughts.
