VULNERABLE UNTIL HARDENED

When we are born we are in one of our most vulnerable stages of our life where we solely rely on a carer to look after all of our wants and needs untill we are old enough to do it ourselves. Growing up the most important experiences we can learn from usually have come from the mistakes that we've made in which the dramas that we've struggled to face have undoubtedly left a negative impression on us that continues to stay with us as a reminder that bad choices will lead to bad experiences. The unpleasant experiences are instilled in our memories to remind us to use the discomfort that we feel as a guide on what to do and what not to do. If we don't use our failures as an opportunity to toughen us up, then we are likely to be taken advantage of and manipulated into doing someone else's bidding. So if you don't want to be treated like a puppet by being at the mercy of someone's whim, then stop letting someone pull your strings. You don't have to make pushing your buttons such an easy task if you recognise someone's intention in doing so.
