So many times, when something bad happens or we feel someone said something or did something that offended us, we make it worse by repeating it over and over again in our heads. We turn a situation into something worse because we keep living it over and over. We think about how we should have responded or what we should have done. We need to realize the past is the past. What we did is done. We need to move on and let it go. Most likely you are the only one reliving it in your mind.
You suffer more from the story you repeat in your mind than from the event itself. Let it go and become free.
