It seems you had your eyes wide open while growing up. I mean, it must have been tough, but in the end, those experiences build you up and add to your strength.
One thing I’ve noticed about people who grew up this way is the knowledge and wisdom they possess.
It can be harder for those who grew up behind closed doors and only get to experience life at a later age.
Like me, I didn’t experience much of adulthood until my recent years.
Honestly, I think for each individual, it can be a different experience in whatever form one grows up. Not everything is determined by circumstances and the environment one is in. Part is also our character which is at least partially, defined by our genes. My take is, in whatever situation one is, or through whatever phase we are going, always positivity can be found, even if it doesnt feel like that. I think it is the art of finding that positivity and use that to progress. You finding adulthood relatively recent, is all good. You had the chance to not act as an adult longer, which has it positive sides, am pretty sure. Just find that and caress that.
My take is, in whatever situation one is, or through whatever phase we are going, always positivity can be found, even if it doesn't feel like that.
I totally agree with you. There are a lot of benefits that came with my kind of childhood.

Thank you! I agree it's better to focus on appreciating and growing what we have.
