If you don't let go of the scene, the event, the sounds and the images
of other people, whom you mistakenly (incorrectly) believe 'did you
wrong’, if you keep replaying the scene and re-creating your negative
feelings, it means you are holding on to it all. Holding on also means
you are carrying one huge inner burden. Burdens make life heavy.
Holding on means you are just stuck in an inner 'action replay' mode,
and that only deepens your suffering, driving it deeper into your
heart. Isn't that foolish? Can you give it up and get on with your life?
Here's the truth of hurt. Well, almost the truth! Every time you think
about something hurtful, perhaps something that others said or did,
you are only repeating the moment it happened in your own mind.
Let's say you think about it 99 times. The other person only said or
did what they did once. But you have done it over and over again in
your head 99 times, so who is hurting whom here? You are hurting
yourself.
