pull up a pew

at church on sunday this quote was read out:

"resentment is a little bit like drinking poision, and then really hoping that it will hurt somebody else instead"

and for some reason this really spoke to me. i was so aware of times when i have felt resentment, and i noticed that these times have never really helped in anyway, they have only worsened the pain in situations and made things harder for me. so i wonder if i ever do this in the rest of my life, are there times when, rather than doing what i intend to do, all that actually happens, is i end up hurting myself...
i hope not.
