Who are we?

[Acouwaila]

Given an upbringing that was not 'perfect' (since none are, lol), who have we become?
Have we given up and resigned ourselves to it? Or have we taken its lessons to build a knowledge base and face the future?
Do we look at ourselves as VICTIMS of our childhoods or STUDENTS?
The victim does not progress into a strong sense of self. But the student does.

just wanna take the time to say thanks

as a 20 yr old struggling with boundaries that i myself have created, and find hard to destroy...what you said helped a bit...thanks
