Resentment and Rationality
Resentment and Rationality
by Tatiana Velitchkov © 2009
Resentment can be described as a withdrawn feeling and desire, which creates values. Resentment is very complex to deal with both internally and in its association to various dimensions of human survival. Even though resentment affects the heart of a person, it so much affects our relationship with other individuals. Resentment is an inert personal secret which most fear to open up to others. We just keep it to our selves. On the other hand, the rationality of resentment is considered essential to a phenomenon and its constituent parts or elements.
Resentment always starts and is involved with one or several negative feelings. Resentment calls for revenge. Resentment as an underlying moving condition can be very dangerous as it shows ones conscious intentions. Resentment can manifest itself in several ways as well as having several important constituents. The first constituent is the desire to have what others have that you do not posses. This may include desire to be physically stronger, healthy, stronger, beautiful, liberal, intelligent, wise and holy. The mere uneasiness of qualities owned by others and exhibited by certain things is not distinctive of the resentful man. The common man and the modern man both exhibit this behavior.
Many a time people will feel incapable of achieving what they wish and give in so easily. Such resignation does not always lead to unhappiness, resenting or loosing hope. In order for resentment to be felt, it must be accompanied with a negative feeling. The inability to fulfill ones desire will occasionally be in line with some negative feeling. These negative feelings include anger, rage, malice, bitterness, spite, hatred, jealousy, envy, desire to revenge, resignation, holding grudges and resentment. Resentment will not always involve all the above negativities but it will contain some of them. Envy is the desire to own what is owned by others. One will always feel incapable of having those values and a sense of unfairness for not having these values. In order for a person to feel that he/she deserves to have or own values owned by another person he/she must have a sense of self-worthiness. Thus he will have an intrinsic worth as a rational being as well as a sense of her self worth.
Rationality justifies the worth of an individual and in such doing, a sense of self worth leads to rational strain for uniformity. If you would feel yourself as being worthy then you would also deserve to own the values owned by others as they are also worthy people just like you. Rationality is innate in resentment. In order to overcome rationality we must hold back negative feelings, which make us, desire to have the values possessed by others. Rationality is somehow the cause of resentment and the cause of all evil.
