Perhaps I would just add one more reflection. The child we once were makes us who we are now, maybe it’s that very lack of knowledge that the caterpillar will become a butterfly, but rather an instinct that yearns for understanding, without necessarily needing to ever find out.
That’s an interesting point. Sure the child is our starting point. The child can never be disappeared otherwise the adult will lose more than we can imagine in life.
She probably went through a lot. And as ruthless as this road might have been for her, it' was part of what shape her into the person she is today. You’re right by thinking that gave her grit and resilience. And it’s part of her.
Some of us are born with special traits. And since at our young ages, we tend to define ourselves based on the group, that can be hard until we get to the point we accept our specialities for part of who we are and find our ways.
