It’s Never Over

Our past affects our present and future long after we have ‘let it go’ or ‘moved on’ or ‘recovered’. We may try to kid ourselves that all those traumatic things exist only in our pasts, that we have either forgiven the wrong doers or that justice has been served, and that that means they are over and done with. But weather we dwell on them or not, we can not deny that they have had their role in shaping us, weather they changed the way we think of ourselves and the world or weather they have mad us more caucus, less trusting, or more able to identify with people in need. The least they could have done is allow us to arrive where we find ourselves today, with the knowledge we possess, the people and personalities we now know, and the physical place at which we reside, where we find ours today is linked in to everything we ever were and everything we have ever been through. Where we find ourselves in the future will be the result of all of that and what happens today, what happens to and around us and how we react to it.
