Thanks so much for posting this, Gabe.

I've been thinking about something similar lately. There is a time for introspection and discovering the reasons for why we are the way we are. There also comes a time when you just have to suck it up and quit blaming your behavior on what has happened in the past.

I know why I behave the way I do. I know that behaving this way doesn't allow me to live my life to it's fullest. Instead of concentrating on my sorry behavior, I should just make an effort to behave in a way I know is the best way for me. No matter what has happened in the past, I am in control of what I do today.

Thanks for making this even more clear to me.
Every time I read one of your posts, it is just what I need at that moment. Amazing.
