“How you were treated as a child is how you treat yourself as an adult.” Ida Santana
By: Gabriela Yareliz
I have been thinking a lot about this. It is a fact that can help you read the room, and it can also help you read the person staring back at you in the mirror.
Taking this one step forward, I also think that how we were treated as children impacts how we allow others to treat us. It’s an interesting chain reaction; one that stresses the importance of parenting and what you teach your child to accept.
Thank God that in life no one is locked into the past. In every moment, you can start something new. You can be reborn by pure sheer unilateral determination. It depends on no one. That is power.
As an adult, you can readjust the compass and figure out a new pattern and standards. One small adjustment on a compass can mark the difference between a path that leads somewhere and lost.
