What do you love now, that you hated when you were younger?

Hey…
I hope all of you are doing well…!
I absolutely hated being alone at times and being by myself when I was a kid;
I used to play in the evening and be a happy kid and thought so much about my future and my well being later in this life…!
But,
As soon as I got to know about life and people in it,
It changed forced me to change my views and my ways…!
There are many things that we hated,
We can agree on the fact they may we hated a certain food or a vegetable and as adults we began to embrace it as there are times when you cannot be picky about food like when you visit someone;
There are a few who ask ahead but where people don’t we can’t be choosy…!
Being the type of person I am,
I talk to strangers and people who I meet on streets a whole lot,
It gives me a perspective into their lives and how they face problems and things that bug them…!
A few days before I met someone who talked to me about their dream in which they had a kid with someone they loved but their life went different ways and when I think about their life and put myself in their shoes I find it very challenging and these challenges help me hone my skill…!
Something that I hated when I was a kid was how adults drink and abuse their wife their children,
Thankfully I don’t come from a family where I saw abuse after drinking,
But I do come from a family where people drink on social occasions and enjoy company of those who are around them…!
And I used to be one of them,
Up until the end of 2025 when I gave up alcohol for good and have switched to sober alternatives which help me enjoy the company and still be with the people who I love…!
That does mean I look at them from a different angle now as I’m the sober one and enjoy the company more than the drinking…!
These are some of the things that I used to hate as a kid and love now…!
What did you think was bad as a child, which you happily do now…?
Comments box are open as always…!
Cheers 🥂
Love Waakiye
