You let it stay.
Resentment doesn't arrive all at once. It builds every time you swallow the anger, dismiss the disappointment, ignore what hurts, or convince yourself you'll get over it tomorrow. You keep carrying it because everyone else keeps calling it strength.
But nothing stays buried forever.
What never leaves eventually starts living inside you. It changes the way you think, the way you love, the way you respond, and the way you see yourself.
