Bearing a Grudge.

Do Beepers bear grudges longer and harder than Saners? I personally don't. If I do get angry I ususally manage to turn it around very quickly, then I feel guilty and want to make up and have peace.
I've noticed others hang onto their grievances though.
Is it a BP trait? Or are you a very forgiving person?

I know this isn't the right answer.
But to me
Forgiveness is Gods job.....
I guess I'm a hanger oner.
Not healthy....I know

I think it might be a personality thing. I don't really bear grudges because I don't really see the point. But I don't think it matters if a person is BP or not.

I believe in turning the other cheek.....on the other hand it took me many years to acquire such a belief...I am not yet able to forgive myself for my many transgretions

Oh yes, forgiving yourself. That's a really hard one. I find it easier to forgive others then to forgive myself.

Serial forgivers go hand in hand with backstabbing tendencies.

Forgive never forget, serial forgivers have short memories.

But if you don't forget you are carrying the past around with you, things that hurt you. Sometimes it's better to let go and get on with life.
Just my humble opinion.

Get some bollocks and try it.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
