Wherever you are in life, you're there because of choices YOU made! These are not always the big choices (which job offer to take); where you are is more a result of many small day-to-day choices.
We love to go through life thinking we are a result of our childhood, or a product of past abuses suffered earlier in life, even identifying ourselves as an abuse survivor.
Let me ask you this question: how can you call it living if you're an abuse "survivor?" That would imply that you are merely "surviving" vs truly thriving.
When is it a good time to let go of your past and start living? This is where our choices begin to factor in; when we've wallowed in self pity and bitterness long enough, we can choose to remain there and continue with our "poor poor me, my life is so lousy" attitude or we can CHOOSE to take action and change our lives for the better.
Personally, I have no patience or tolerance for those who have made the choice to remain in their "poor me" condition, whining and complaining ad nauseum, steadfastly refusing to make the choice to improve their lives in any manner.
Inaction is just another form of choice. In not taking action, we are CHOOSING to not take action.
We are a product of our past choices and while we cannot go back in time to change our choices, we can certainly CHOOSE to make better choices starting this exact moment.
