Other people's behavior -- either today, or in the past -- no longer dictates my behavior.
If there are monsters in your past, you can be free of them forever...
if you learn to (truly) forgive.
The book "Alcoholics Anonymous" (AA's Big Book) observes, first and foremost, that "...the world and its people are often quite wrong..."
It then goes on to suggest that the people who wronged us were themselves spiritually sick.
It can be a long hard journey to true forgiveness sometimes, but in my experience, that belief is where it starts.
