Most likely, when you are upset for any reason, it is rare that you will want to quickly see the real cause of your upset or the solution, but with practice you can begin to ask yourself honestly, is it the person/situation or is it my unforgiving thoughts about this person and the past that are upsetting me?

It is rare, with people who are on television or celebrities or actors - it's rare to go to their house for a party and find they cooked. That's rare.
