Childhood is the foundation of life, much like the soil that nurtures a child's growth. However, the quality of this soil profoundly affects a person's health and future. Just as a spruce growing on a rocky slope may struggle to survive but cannot grow into a straight trunk due to the harsh environment, leaving painful bends instead, emotional experiences can similarly affect a child's self-perception, causing pain and chronic inflammation.
