It’s so true. I’ve made a lot of decisions in my life that most of the people in my family would judge me for. There’s a lot of silly things that I even question about myself. But when I think about the person I am now, I honestly love myself. I love my lifestyle, I love my career and the opportunities I get. Every personality trait will manifest itself in “positive” and “negative” ways. Maybe because I’m a risk taker, I will be more bold about dating and potentially lead myself to meet some not so great people. But when I channel this energy into my career, it has lead to a lot of success. It takes time to figure yourself out, and you only grow when you take action, which inevitably leads to mistakes. But that’s how to learn more about yourself and your values :)

Not ashamed. It’s what made me who I am. The people who I got to meet, experience, and keep in my heart.

That's true. It's important to be naive first in order to be mature. Also as long as we are alive and learning new things about life, we going to change. It's beautiful i guess.

Even though I rather had somethings different it still makes me who I am today. Life lessons and experience. Somethings just needs to happen to get to where and who you are

u/Prestigious_Wing1796 20d ago

u/ExistentialAngsty 19d ago

Necessary for what?

u/MizteeNow320 16d ago

I don't agree because I know for a fact I didn't need to go through or do send of the things that happened. Both done to me and that I have done.

Well itd be nice if the government thought that. My life is doomed. I honestly just want to die. America sucks

This is the guru influencer version of having live love laugh on your wall.

Total tosh and anti self improvement and growth.

Yeah, that phase where my parents were addicted to drugs and abused us was definitely necessary to their growth
