RE: How Growing Up Poor Taught Me to Be More Positive About Life
I haven't heard of that but it makes total sense. Losing a parent is right up there with one of the hardest losses one can experience in life so it would only make sense that if it happened young you would be sort of "immune" to anything else life threw your way.
You had adversity at a young age. You learned that nothing can really hurt you unless you let it. It's almost like it turned your fear-setting down.
If you've already overcome rough things as a kid then you realize life can't beat you. I think a hard fork when you're young can turn into a personal super power if you deal with it in a positive way.
I agree 100%
