Grudges

by Subomi Plumptre

Why do people keep grudges? I can understand taking time to get over betrayal or abuse. You need time to heal. But why do people remember things like, “They didn’t greet me in the morning”, “They insulted me on social media”, “They gossiped about me”…

Aren’t you busy? Don’t you have a job? Isn’t your life too full for inanities?

I multitask so much that I have limited mental space. I forget unimportant things quickly to make room for new thoughts. I can’t afford to remember slights or keep grudges for my heart would be a dark place if I did.

I believe people should forget the good they do too. While expecting appreciation isn’t a bad thing, you must never have an attitude of doing anyone a favour. Serving is a privilege and blesses you too. God will remember your good works. The one who never forgets will reward you.
