The Past Cannot Be Changed

We are powerless over the past.  

This is an absolute fact.  

We cannot change it. 

We cannot breathe yesterday’s air, but we can deprive ourselves of what we need today by trying to do the impossible, and that is, change the past.  

We somehow convince ourselves that by holding on to some mind held position, we will prevent the sociopath or situation from becoming real or happening again in the future.  

We are punishing ourselves, all the while believing that we are somehow affecting the perpetrator.  
It is as though we have become convinced that if we punish ourselves enough, the situation will change.  

This is not the answer, yet we often try to do this over and over again, only to find the same result…misery.
