I believe that our lives are shaped by both experience and character equally at least from my perspective.I really like this question,in my 24 years of living I have experienced some unfortunate things.Although they weren’t something I would like to experience again I did learn from these things.Ill give you an example,my sister who’s older than me by at least 7 years was cruel to me and threatened me as a child.She would tell me that when I was asleep she was going to crush my skull with an object.Now in my mind I wasn’t thinking about what she said I was thinking about why my sister had so much hate towards me.BUT…to answer the question,I was either going to let it affect me negatively or I was going to let it go.My choice was to let it go,and now that I’m older I have no animosity towards my sibling.My heart had hardened a couple of times before and I would wish her the worst in life but those feelings have dissipated.Here is where my character shaped me in a positive manner.Just like the threats were painful it’s also painful to feel immense hate towards your sibling.The experiences with my sister as a kid weren’t of a healthy relationship with your kin.These experiences shaped me to become the way I am as much as my character has as well.I would like to share more stories with you guys like these.Though I notice I can’t really get views on my posts that aren’t prompts if you guys know how please share a tip.Thank you all for reading.
