We often expect other people to meet our needs. When they don't give us what we want, we may feel anger, resentment and even revengeful. Rather than blaming others, we could choose to get in touch with our needs and then fill them ourselves.

Very true, this is what I need to do as well :)

It's so easy for us to always look to others but if we really search, we have it all within ourselves! Thanks so much for reading!

This is very, very true. I STILL have difficulty with it. I STILL have expectations that I want others to meet, especially my husband. I have lived a long time with lots of resentment and anger, and yes, even vengefulness. You're right though, my happiness is all about me, and my unhappiness is all about me too.
