Bitterness Quotes

Yes, Bitterness. I have tasted it often in my life, and I have smelled its scent on the faces of many. It is not just a passing feeling, but a poison that accumulates in the soul, turning the sweet into sour, and the beautiful into ugly. It is the result of unhealed wounds, uncorrected injustices, and unfulfilled dreams.
