No where in any definition of the word have I found the word "FORGET". Also, no where have I found any indication that lack of action is an aspect of the word. "To cease to feel resentment", means anger, hate, disgust and all the other wonderfull emotions are left behind, dropped.
Think of a pro boxer stepping into the ring, or any competitive fighter stepping into the ring with anger, hostility, or hatred. This fighter, filled with hate, rage or whatever, will be slaughtered because he has no grasp of his emotion. If the emotion is removed, the fighter then relies on a skill set that has been taught, and chances are, he will control the battle.
However, if one wants, wishes, or maintains his stance on anger...feel free to do so, it's certainly justified, here I believe there is no argument. This is ones own choice....be filled with anger....be consummed with rage....allow hate to control your actions. You are free to do these things, be my guest.
Yet if one wants to fight, to bring down these institutions of orgainized child abbuse, domestic terrorisim...I suggest leaving the anger/hostility/rage at home. Operators of these institutions will use your own anger/hostility/rage against you, to make one look foolish and your credibility crumbles and you are percieved as "disgruntled" and your eforts dissmissed as such. And in the end, you have accomplished nothing. In the end, your left with your anger/rage/hostility and now the added bonus of being humiliated by those who are more in control of thier emotions. In short, they win, you lose.
Dont forget anything, compile the facts, organize your thoughts, focus on dates, names, events and present them without the anger/rage/hostility.
Not to mention how the anger/rage/hostility effects loved ones, spouses, our children and our own sense of well being.
Ya don't have to forgive, ya neededn't release your anger/rage/hostility. The ones that take this stance will have to live with these emotions....I simply choose not to. However, don't delude yourself into thinking I will not fight on a moments notice to protect our right to HEAL. Dont think for a sec, if given the opportunity, I won't fight for the injustice, cruelty and absolute unnessasary suffering happening across our country to our younger counterparts. If you surmise my intent in such a manner...your simply mistaken. Simply put, you would be fucking wrong.
It's easy to hate, a most simplistic, barebones, animalistic emotion. It's time to evolve. When dealing with the Semblers, the Newtons and others of similar atrocities, we arn't dealing with idiots, and they do not present themselves as such. Act in anger at a protest, show your rage at a well funded/guarded function for the Sembler clan and you will be in the back seat of a cruiser in minutes, and you have accomplished nothing. Present facts, dates, instances without anger and a crowd will gather around you to listen...I have seen it happen more than once at various protests.
Make fun, riddicule me if ya want....I can take it, I have much experience at it....I went thru Straight Inc. as well. I wont deny that I wont be effected, after all, that is the intent...it's effective....it was learned in Straight Inc. I consider it to be Straight behaviour to condem, riddicule and to show utter contempt to the idea of forgiveness...I see it as still acting on the training recieved from Straight Inc., still acting as one of thier minions. Good luck with that!
Genuinely I wish
Much Healing
In Peace
