Bids for repair are not necessarily met with predicament-sensitive responsiveness or generalizable clarity. Self-righteousness, as well as simply lack of context, necessarily obscure both. When our urge is for repair rather than self-righteousness, the mismatch leads to the negative emotion of resentment.
Referring to the Cyclic Context figure above, resentment as the natural emotional response to internal and/or external tension being generated when, for a given individual, true-sense modulates between subjective (shielded) and objective (unshielded) perception. The obscure nature of anchoring, a deeply integrative function of communication, makes resentment an often unexamined emotion. It forms when we open to the world, are met with crap, and either internalize or project the crap part. The trickiest and also “meta” part is this. The emotion ties existentially to true-sense. In leaving resentment unexamined, we actively forget (due to obscured sensibility) the important starting place for our effort — the intention to open to experience in a way that generates meaning, anchoring, and centering in us.
Efforts to clarify the crap (to repair) are not necessarily participated in by others in ways we are able to work with constructively. As an internalized emotion, resentment starts wth clarity about what is possible. When it ishwarted in its expression by the limited objectivity of others, one solution is to turn on the self, obscuring self-clarity (anchored true-sense).
The other option is projected resentment. With that, external tensions in the form of grudges arise. External grudges mirror internal resentments, and the purpose of the relational tension is to un-center the be-grudged individual. By disrupting our own direct perception of true-sense, in relation equally to self and others, defensive postures get entrenched.
