Everyone is thirteen years old

Yes, everyone is thirteen years old, so they have had rebellious desires, but they have taken a different path. One word, choice.
I remember when I was thirteen years old, I also used a razor blade across the back of my tender hand like Tracy. To this day, there is still a scar that is not deep or shallow on the back of the hand.
What is this for? What is the reason for this pain?
Maybe it was not clear at the time.
When I was 20 years old, I watched such a movie again, and I didn't have any sympathy for such a heroine, because I chose what I did.
If we only look at the world with a pessimistic view, then there will never be anything worth loving in our eyes, and others will always owe us.
This is not a great truth, it is just a real experience.
Fortunately, at the end of the movie, Tracy regained her peace in her mother's arms and saw her mother's hands stained for her livelihood. I think she began to understand who is the one who truly loves herself.
Whether it is thirteen, fifteen or seventeen, in fact, everyone is experiencing and growing. Those pains and traces are nothing but memories.
