In regards to you still feeling upset about things in the past, I've learnt a very important thing on my emotional healing journey. It's a process, and there's steps. Moving on/forgiving/etc. is the last step (or one of), feeling angry/sad/insert emotion here has to happen before you move on.
I spent most of my life 'sucking it up' but now I engage in one of the most loving things you can do for yourself. Let yourself be a mess...
So true. I've often felt people need to learn less about managing their emotions and instead focus on allowing them. Indeed our society tends to teach us emotions are a sign of weakness.

Thanks for listening and providing the valuable insight. Sometimes I feel somewhere in my development I learned all the wrong lessons about emotions in general.
