Haha, I went to high school with this guy. I got similar memories too, I remember at Kalaheo school this one kid told me go back home and I got confused like "What, my house?" and he was like "No, the mainland!" and I didn't know what the mainland was because I had never been outside Hawaii and I had to go ask my mom LOL
He's right though. Getting rid of that chip is hard and I'm still working on it, but it's rewarding. Nowdays I look back and think I had it rough as a kid, but it also gave me an opportunity to grow thick skin and have an example of how sometimes stuff isn't all that meets the eye. It's kind of sad to find out that some of the kids who bullied me were being abused by their parents, and some of them are in jail over drugs. One of them actually went to jail for attempted muder. Makes you realize that a lot of the time the bullying said more about their situation than yours, and I think it makes you more perceptive to the factors that cause hate.
🤙🏽 Aloha Always
Always!
