Childhood memories shape who we are from "summary" of I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy

Our childhood memories are like the blueprint of our being. They are the foundation upon which our personalities are built. They shape our beliefs, our values, our fears, and our desires. Every experience we have as a child leaves an indelible mark on our psyche. In "I'm Glad My Mom Died," Jennette McCurdy explores how her childhood memories have influenced her as an adult. She delves into the traumas and the joys of her early years, showing how they have shaped her into the person she is today. McCurdy's memories of her mother's death, for example, have had a profound impact on her. They have fueled her drive to succeed, but they have also left her with deep emotional scars. Her memories of her mother are bittersweet, a constant reminder of what she has lost. But it is not just the traumatic memories that shape us. The happy memories, the moments of pure joy and innocence, also play a crucial role in defining who we are. McCurdy's memories of playing with her siblings, of laughing with her friends, of feeling safe and loved, have all contributed to her sense of self.
