“It feels much nobler to feel guilty than resentful, and it takes more courage to express resentment than guilt.

“Squandering our gifts brings distress to our lives. As it turns out, it's not merely benign or 'too bad' if we don't use the gifts that we've been given; we pay for it with our emotional and physical well-being.
