"But what happened in the past has lasting consequences..."

Peter Rukavina

Rosie Le Faive writes, in The Past is a Foreign Country:

But what happened in the past has lasting consequences. It can’t just “stay in the past.” If the consequences haven’t been apparent to you, that’s the problem. To say it “was okay at the time” is missing the point. It was not okay then, but you were able to ignore anyone who said it wasn’t.
