Each of us—as well as most religions, races, ethnic groups, and nations—have been wronged at some point in their existence; sometimes horribly.
It is wasteful and dangerous though to dwell on these past injustices, and center one's identity on them. Through the lens of idividual or collective self-pity, even the most heinous acts can be justified as righteous revenge, retribution, or defense against crimes long passed.
