This is huge, your mom rejecting you only made you stronger and you getting the best of yourself after the rejection is something you should be proud of.
Rejection is not the end of the world and many people find it difficult to get over it because of the negative mindset they have fed their soul at the point of rejection.
Yes I knew I had to let go of the hurt and become better and it's also a good thing that I was still very small then and that also helped my healing process.
Being rejected does not mean we are less of ourselves, it only means we still have more to add to ourselves.
Thank you so much for coming through with this beautiful comment, I'm really grateful dear.
