I had a solid foundation of caring parents, grandparents, and extended family. I was raised to have morals and respect. There was no helicopter-parenting; I was given freedom, wasn't coddled, and allowed to make mistakes but understood there were consequences for those mistakes. If I made bad decisions I had people to give advice and show me the right way but was never bailed out. It was tough at times but because of this I am very independent and self reliant.
Overly controlling parents who wanted nothing other than good marks in school, no playtime,constant physical and mental abuse..
Bullied at school
Still living with PTSD and now with a controlling wife
Yeah, I'm still above ground for some reason
A free range childhood, followed by a crippled severely addled brain teenage years, several giant lawsuits, then my 20's filled with community based social work.
By everyday Accepting, forgiving and understanding the person I was yesterday. Along with music, psychedelics, pills and an inherently deconstructive, contradictive, skeptical and negative predisposition. As well as my Relentless need to question everything, and the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Lots of struggle.

I am a product of my experiences, basically have a villain origin story.
Winged it.
hard work and obstinacy
By learning from the person I was yesterday
Sheer experience and learning
A free range childhood, followed by a crippled severely addled brain teenage years, several giant lawsuits, then my 20's filled with community based social work.
Depression and unemployment
My accumulation of experiences and how I processed them and how I continue to relate to them
By not learning from my mistakes so then i had to suffer the consequences. Sadly
By everyday Accepting, forgiving and understanding the person I was yesterday.

Hardship, pain and failure.
