It is a sad fact of our world, that many people suffer or become stuck in their lives because of something someone said or did in their past. There are individuals who are middle-aged and beyond who are still stuck in a certain time period in their lives, living and suffering over something that happened when they were very young. We must come to realize, that no one or no thing controls us or defines us. It doesn't matter what our parents said to us. It doesn't matter what our teachers or friends said or believe about us, it doesn't matter how religion judges us in light of its doctrines and dogmas. You know who you are, you know who you've always wanted to be. There is not a single person in this world who has the power or the right to tell you who you are as an individual. It may be a fact that others have built a prison around you with their hurtful words, actions and judgments. But only you hold the key to let yourself out of that prison. You can realize, that perhaps, the people around you have never really known who you truly are in your heart. So walk away from those preconceived notions of others. Open the prison door and let yourself find freedom and peace. You don't have to stay shackled to the past or live your life according to its injuries. You have the right to change and grow beyond all of that.
