More On Life



I have come to understand that being raised in an unstable (unpredictable, erratic, on the edge) household makes you understand that the world doesn’t exist to accommodate you, which… is something a lot of people struggle to understand well into adulthood. It makes you realize how quickly a situation can shift, how danger really is everywhere. But crises, when they occur, do not catch you off guard; you have never believed you lived under a shelter of some essential benevolence. And an unstable childhood makes you appreciate calmness and not crave excitement.
