What does it mean to belong?
- For me belonging is feeling is being somewhere where you are around others you can trust and relate to.
- The environment, and your identity are the main factors affecting how you belong.
- Personal experiences, values, beliefs and culture can all affect belonging.
Can we truly leave our past behind?
- Even if we can move on or accept events of our past, even traumatic ones, they still make up our identity, and it is impossible to completely forget it.
- Even if you forget it, such as due to memory loss, there are almost always others who will remember it.
