The statute of limitations has expired on most of our childhood trauma.

Dr. Gordon Livingston was a US author and psychiatrist, who wrote a critically acclaimed book called Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart, wherein he 30 truths or life lessons (which you can read more about here ). He believed that every individual is in control of his/her destiny, despite their past of current situation. The fourth chapter in his book was called 'The statute of limitations has expired on most of our childhood traumas.'

The chapter goes on to explain that despite what has happened to us in our childhood, whether it be severe traumas of neglect, we are still in control of our destiny, and in order to move forward we must first be willing to let go of the past, in order to move into our future.

I have asked myself this question manier times, I even blogged about it earliar on in the year.  I am still waiting for an answer from my destiny.
