If life experiences help you grow, I am okay putting a pause on growth at least for a few minutes.
Being raised by a single mom who set an example by sharing with others when she had very little

First, you think you are the main character. Then, life throws a banana peel, and boom—you are just a sidekick in someone else’s story. Sharing when you have little, losing when you think you are winning, and learning when you don’t want to—life is a tricky teacher. No warnings, no homework, just surprise tests. But hey, at least it keeps things interesting!
