it doesn't necessarily have to be as big and dramatic as a grudge, but just some bitterness or any negative emotions.... even if it's only when you stop and remember people from the past every now and then, and not something you think about on a daily basis.. so who are those people and what did they do that caused you harm?
ofc, throughout our lives, we hurt many people and many people hurt us. But the major cases for me were these - the first person who deeply hurt me was probably my brother, then my father, and lastly my mother (indirectly). Also my "friends" from school who became my bullies, especially the girl I thought of as my best friend. The guys I dated as well, even a friend of my ex... that being said, I choose to forgive all these people. Even if I couldn't help but hate them back then, I've come to understand that humans are flawed and not necessarily malicious. These things were not something I deserved or provoked, the people who hurt me were either in a bad place themselves, or they were just being stupid and trying to be funny while actually being horribly cruel. The feeling of pain that they've taught me has made me kinder as I don't want to see anyone else suffer the same way too
