I wrote in the original Change Is Hard AF essay that "𝙘𝙡𝙖𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙮 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙗𝙚 𝙥𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙛𝙪𝙡 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙧𝙪𝙩𝙝 𝙤𝙛𝙩𝙚𝙣 𝙙𝙧𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙨 𝙥𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙙" and I think for those reasons, people are reluctant to evolve and test their character as they move through life.
Survival is a badge you earn but that doesn't mean you can use it to judge others as weak. Surviving is a choice. It's not a default setting. Your reality is not everyone's reality.
Social media is not life. It's a VERSION of life people choose because it's easier, it makes you feel like you have more control than in real life, and it makes you feel more brave when you want to do awful or very abnormal things.
Where is your wound? Projecting your own reality into the outside world and using your preferred connotations to interpret what you see out there is DELUSIONAL.
There is a difference between being DENIED choice and simply not liking what is presented for you to decide upon. If the choices you make determine your character, then who are you if you make no choices except when one benefits you?
